Why dabo is no upgrade from tommy bowden

Face the facts Yea dabo has a better record and two acc titles but there is a reason for that. Remember the acc when tommy was here? Ncst- had phillip rivers was top 25 team BC- had matty ice was a top 10 team at times VT- were an elite team at the time had elite athletes FSU- were still dominant top 5 team at beginning GT- was a good team, remember calvin johnson? Wake- had good players won the acc Maryland- remeber friedgens first years? md was a top 10 team for a few years there. Miami- was on decline but still top 20 teams when we played them. Usuck- tommy owned them because we had better players period. If he played todays usuck he wouldnt have had that good of record. Now look at the acc, they are terrible no good players or coaches, the league as a whole is pathetic. Tommy could have done just as good as dabo or better considering he did know how to field a defense. So all you sunshine pumpers I guess we should be thrilled to have a soft team and get crushed by usuck every year. Clemson fans no longer care about football, they are more worried about having wine and cheese in the parking lot. Hire GARY PATTERSON!!!

Tommy Bowden never got it done. Period.
Dabo has done well and gotten us an ACC championship as well as 3 division championships in 4 years.
USuCk is just at the top of their game, something Tommy never had to deal with.

Big games as in last year 3-0 against back to back to back top 25 teams (1 reigning national champion, ACC champion, and Atlantic Division Champion), an ACC Championship win, and 2.. 2!! wins against VT both on the road in prime time big games. Yeah he's just like Tommy Bowden...

yeah yeah blah blah blah.. last year GT, FSU, VT, and Clemson were all ranked at points during the season.. Yeah CTB could beat SCAR almost every year but then yall were complaining that we haven't won the ACC or had a 10 win season under his tenure, that's all anyone cared about then... The ACC is down but with CTB I guarantee we would be no better than NC State right now. Heck we'd probably be on a 5 game skid against the coots. Stop complaining, we're 10-2 and finished the regular season with one of our highest rankings in a very long time. Go Tigers!!

I never thought I'd see people on here wanting to fire our head coach after having back to back 10 win seasons, an ACC Championship, 3 Division Championships, and an Orange Bowl appearance in 4 seasons!!

5 Reasons:
Nov 26, 2012, 1:21 PM
|
|
1. We killed Wake Forest on the road, a Thursday night game that CTB lost in 2008, and a team we beat by a field goal in the final seconds at Death Valley last year.
2. Beat GT.
3. Beat NC State.
4. Beat Maryland handily this year.
5. We did NOT lose to an obviously inferior team this year!

1. 2008 Wake was an 8-win team, beat Vanderbilt, and won a bowl game. This year's Wake is 5-7, got stomped by Vanderbilt, and is not bowl eligible.
2. GT lost to Middle Tennessee State this year
3. I'll give you this one as an improvement from last year
4. A Maryland that was out of players it had recruited to play Quarterback, and had lost its freshman phenom receiver and leading tackler to injury.
5. No, we didn't, but those inferior teams were even more inferior than they normally were.

and I don't even want Dabo fired, I just don't see much improvement from last year to this year. There's been some, but not nearly enough.

The heck with the recruiting business for now. We still have a bowl game. Let us just hope that we don't get matched up with LSU and get 70 pts hung on us again. We better get mentally and physically tough before we meet anyone. As far as recruiting we already have enough superstars we need some players who are willing to do what ever it takes to win the big games.

We need linemen and defensive backs, not just skill players!

We either can't recruit them or can't coach and develop them.
Everything else is beside the point.
