Grudging respect to Dabo for holding out as long as he could. And I mean that sincerely although I think his stubbornness knocked us down the CFP ladder.
TODAY we have seen:
-more than one Clemson player deciding not to play in the meaningless bowl -heads rolling on the coaching staff -at least one player picked up in the portal
Today we have become like everyone else in college football in the 2020s.

I think he's referring to us offering a player

no one's been picked up. And for the record, like I've had to tell many other Clemson fans, we've offered players in the portal before, just they didn't come to us. The big Center from Virginia last year was down to us and Michigan and you can guess where he went. Until we pick up 5 players in the portal, not much has changed on that front.

Yep. We had a policy of not offering NIL to portal players. I wonder if that

Think i saw where we wouldn't use it as a lead in recruiting tool, but will talk about it in the course of recruitment

Firing a dead weight coach was the first thing Dabo did when he was hired.

This is just a return to how it has to be.

I wish someone would do a list of coaches Dabo has fired

because it seems to be more than you see at other programs.
It's not like he has not fired anyone since Spence.
Maybe it is because he hires the wrong guy, I dunno.
It may just be Dabo has been coaching longer than most other coaches.
Saban doesn't seem to fire them, but they don't stay there long - they get the Bama 'cred' and move on for more money or opportunity.

Saban fires a bunch of coaches but never announces it

or couches it in those terms. His deal is that if a coach does what he is asked, even if he sucks at it, he gets re-homed rather than publicly fired. If they get out of line, Saban is more explicit, like with Lane Kiffin.
There are a lot of Bama coaches who have left for lateral or worse positions. That's what is normally happening. It works there because Saban has an enormous coaching tree/connections in cfb and NFL. He also has a bunch of staff turnover.
Not sure it would work here, where where coaches like to stay long term.
