analyst on any network are numbered. He says Dabo has 3-5 years left at Clemson. Here is a bet I would make with Paul or any of his fans. His days as an analyst will end before Dabo is done at Clemson. Has Finetooth not looked at Clemson? We've kept BB around for thirteen years with not much to show. Dabo has six straight playoff appearances, four title game appearances and tow national championships.
In an article in Athlon's Finemess is quoted, “People that graduated from Clemson, people that are Clemson fans, they don’t think Dabo Swinney is going to be there a long time. When I say long time, I mean three to five years. I think his time is nearly up.” Oooh great journalism there Paul. Did you interview any high level CU boosters? Did you talk with anyone with connections to the athletic department? I doubt it. Journalism has never been your strong suit. In fact I've seen little evidence that you conduct any journalistic work. Enjoy your next three to five years bud. I'm sure Dabo will send you a nice note on your way out the door.

Paycheck is too big for him to leave anytime soon. Lee Corso 88. Skip Bayless 72. As long as he is breathing and running his mouth ESPN will continue to wheel him out there.

Paycheck size does not determine retirement age. Can't spend money once you're in the pine box.

He's almost 70? That means in 6 or 8 more years...

...he'll be old enough to run for president.
Note: It's a bipartisan joke. Both guys running for POTUS are in their late 70's.

Age isn't the issue. There are plenty of sharp 90 years olds. The problem is cognitive abilities

On a scale of one to Biden, how bad is the cognitive decline with Finebaum?

Clemson fans have really irked Finebaum so much that we are in his head even when our program isn’t having elite results.
He’s laying the groundwork to talk a lot of #### before and after the UGA game. If Clemson happens to win this game, his ratings will soar because Clemson fans and anti SEC folks will flood his talk show to rub it in.
His current ratings are obviously low and he knows bring up Clemson will get him trending on TNet, which for some reason, tickles his fancy.

Agreed.
I was at the airport today, my former Co-Capt was coming through with the Miss St women’s golf team. His A/C owner has a strong affiliation with that particular school & team. I met the Coach coming from the hangar into the lobby and I congratulated him on his season and told him I was a Clemson fan. He said, “Ohhhh, they’ve done really well”. I said, “Yeh, but you’ll never hear about it. Clemson fans are fed up with all the negative spin we get”.
He said, “they’re scared and y’all beat them”.
I might have to adopt the Miss St women’s golf team as a secondary rooting interest after that take.

Let him roll bc I really enjoyed watching him eat buzzard stew after all the big talk that he had going
of how Bama's best offense in the history of Bama FB was going to kick Clemson to sleep before the kickoff of our 2018 national championship game win!!! He choked on that buzzard stew from the Bama beat down for weeks after that game!!!!

and I am keenly aware of the signs of cognitive decline. Do I really believe Finebloom is in cognitive decline, at his age it would be unusual to not have some decline going on. That being said, it's late May and he needs something to keep himself relevant until fall camp opens. My bet still remains, his career comes to a close before Dabo's.

because I can't imagine anyone with any connection to Clemson saying something like that.
My well-being at nearly 77 years of age is not predicated upon the success or failure of any sport, and Dabo Swinney has brought enough honor and prestige to my Alma Mater, that he can stay right where he is, as long as he wants, and I won't give a hoot in he1l about some moronic motormouth saying otherwise.
Hence, for me...Paul Finebomb and his ilk can kiss my assssss!

"3 to 5 years" can be said about any CFB head coach. #### they way people are dying suddenly, you could say that about pretty much anyone over the age of 40.
Finebaum is a dill-do with ears.

Honestly, i wouldn't be surprised to see Dabo retire in 5ish seasons.
What will have put in at the school for nearly 30 years. He's made more money than he could ever spend. Does not strike me as the type that is going to coach until he is close to death like Bowden or Beamer.

Well, Foundbloom didn't have much to start with so there's that. His fall would be more like stepping off a matchbox, rather that falling off a building........if you get my drift.

Look how bent out of shape you and others are over his most recent comments.
You are merely a pawn in his game.
