Is it time to offer Dabo a lifetime contract?
Dec 16, 2015, 8:49 AM

to try to protect ourselves from potential poachers?
I know it's unprecedented, but he's built us into a great program again and there's no sign of that going away.

The following replies to your post should be interesting.
But no, no lifetime contract

What if there were some continued success wins/rankings clauses in it that would give us the right to terminate if not met?

Nah. 7-8 years of leash is plenty. *

*Dabo could bring us 3 national championships in a row and I'd still be generally uncomfortable with very long contracts.

I can't tell if this troll bait or random thought. Either way I'm not hungry.

Ok I'll bite. B/c long term contracts are ####### stupid. I don't care if it's Belichek on the sidelines. Things change and hitching your ride to one horse is never good. There.

We should also add in a $1 billion buyout should any
Dec 16, 2015, 8:55 AM

school try to hire him away from Clemson, but no buyout if we want to fire him. I believe he said he didn't even read his last contract before signing it so I doubt he'd even notice until it's too late.

This is a destructive post that in a way pokes fun of the best Coach in Clemson History. Disappointing that some of our fans are being this way.

I may have signed up on this site 17 days ago but I am Jervy level IPTAY for 10 years now. Not trying to pick a fight on here I can for the most part get along with anyone who is a tiger fan. I don't agree with some silly lifetime contract nonsense but I took offense to laughing at our Coach about not reading the contract. It was a sign of trust between him and the university and proof this wasn't about the money. Whether a fan or a coot made that comment it would and should upset anyone invested in the Clemson Athletics. If we lose Dabo I can assure you all the success we are enjoying will go away as fast as it came.

So...." If we lose Dabo I can assure you all the success we are enjoying will go away as fast as it came."
Yet you "don't agree with some silly lifetime contract nonsense" ??
Speaking of not making much sense....

Nothing last forever and I don't expect we will keep Dabo forever. Losing him now would hurt like heck. Signing a lifetime contract would be the Clemson equivalent of a 400' banner

Thus the buyouts allowing us to fire him on the cheap
Dec 16, 2015, 10:06 AM
|

but not letting anyone hire him away from us without paying Clemson $1 billion. It's not difficult to understand, and there's no downside for Clemson.

We just put out a contract on anyone who calls him about another job. It's way cheaper.
