Kolek planning to go pro
Reformists are never happy....literally. Today's victory to savor, but tomorrow means additional changes....I'm just helping you get there faster...the inevitability of it all. All a matter of time, baby.
What Lenny said.Go shift some more goalposts and create more strawmen.
So much fun to see Nick Saban lose by 10,000 points!
Reformists, that is their daily mantra....move the goalposts again and again and again and again....
It's nice to see him take some responsibility. He's almost as good at throwing kids under the bus while "taking responsibility" as Charlie Weiss was. This really is an impressive quote: "We thought we had a really, really good fake, and somebody didn't block a guy they were supposed to block, and so it didn't work. So it was a bad call. It's always that way." Translation: "I'll take the blame for making a bad call (but it was only bad call because one of the kids screwed up)."
I could see Dabo ending up at Carolina if Riverboat Ron gets the axe next year.
I would guess there's only one job Dabo would leave Clemson for. And that's the job of the guy he just beat.
I know next to nothing about CFB, but why would Dabo leave for an SEC school? He can recruit top notch talent, is the king of SC, in a good enough conference but not too much of a buzzsaw to make the top 4 every year.Edit. Except for $$$, yes. But my guess is Clemson will match anything SC or 'Bama offers, but what the hell do I know.
He's an Alabama native who played for the Crimson Tide then coached there for seven years before going to Clemson.I think the only thing that might keep him - and perhaps some other quality candidates - from the job is that Saban will be an impossible act to follow. Regardless of last night's game, what he's done at Bama is unprecedented in college football.
Of course, you're not exactly including all of what Saban said after the game.“I just have a feeling that I didn’t do a very good job for our team, with our team, giving them the best opportunity to be successful,” Saban said. “I always feel that way, even sometimes when we win, I think there’s things we could do better or that I could have done better.“But particularly in this case, never really ever got comfortable with what we needed to do to win this game, especially on defense, especially the matchups we had in our secondary versus their receivers. That was something that was kind of bothering me going into the game, and as the game unfolded, it worked out that those matchups were a big difference in the game.”I get why people dislike Saban, but it's unfair to suggest he didn't take the blame last night.Oh, and he was right about the fake. It was a bad call and it did get blown up because of a missed block.
If Dabo sustains Saban's success, he's going to be even worse to listen to in 5 years than Saban is now.
In my world they say this is already a done deal. Sabian retires, Dabo comes back home to his alma mater. Depending on who you believe in the industry they say this has essentially been agreed to a few years ago from a gentlemen’s perspective and Clemson knows it.Guess we will see. Can’t believe Saban wants to do this too many more years. Especially the recruiting part.
It is yours, too. You just happen to want to move them backwards.
As evidenced by the fact that we're all here, the lure of one's alma mater is a powerful thing.
And yes, by definition reformists are never happy. There is always the next perceived injustice they have to tackle. Wash, rinse, repeat. It is inate in their nature.
