was it just too much for Nick? It is no longer just coaching and managing recruiting.... now it all the other crap too... NIL, Portal, needy parents... boosters...

Wouldn't be shocked if Dabo eventually retires early for same reasons.

Dabo hasn't been happy either. Its been really obvious the past couple yers. I could see Dabo trying his hand at Alabama and giving it a go for a few years, then maybe the NFl and retiring in 15 years.

Why would Dabo go to the NFL?

Why not, at least they have more control of players with contracts, no long recruiting trail, his kids are almost done at Clemson, etc?

This was my initial thought too. I don't blame lil Nicky at all. It's a mess and nobody wants to clean it up.

Inaction by the NCAA is destroying college football. The SEC needs to break away and form their own league. Maybe them and the BIG going in together. Why not? Govern their own mega-conference and keep all the cash flow. The eyeballs of college football are with the SEC and the BiG next. Would be unreal what that would be for each team. The important part, though, would have a STRUCTURE that the NCAA does not provide.

You might be an SEC homer if you really think those two conferences alone

would be a viable way to run college football programs. The nation needs much more than two conferences, unless they expand.

He's old. It happens. It's like a basketball or football player in their 30s realizing they aren't 20 anymore. 15 hour days in your 70s has to be absolutely terrible. Enjoy your money at that point.
