He's a good looking pure old fashion, slobber knocking, knock you on your butt football player..He would look great in Crimson & is "Taylor Made" for our type of offense at Bama..

Granddaddy Gene turned down HC offers because he was under contract as a defensive assistant for the Cowboys.

I just can't imagine Gene blessing young Mr. Chalk going to Dabo (who played for Stallings at Alabama), and telling him he had a better offer.

I think Chalk stays with Clemson.

You may be right...although a verbal commitment isn't probably viewed as an "ethical promise." It's more of a "this is the way I feel right now" but it's widely accepted that a verbal isn't worth anything much until the paperwork is signed and faxed.

As for his commitement to Dabo, Chalk could have done much worse. I know Dabo has gotten raked over the coals many times by choking away some games, but I love the passion that Dabo coaches with and I also believe he's become a much better coach in the last few years. His recruiting has always been very good and I think his coaching acumen is catching up pretty fast!

Would love to have another legacy, but I'm sure Gene had a talk with him about what commitment means. I hate he committed so early in the process. Sounds like he may want to get away from any family shadows or legacys.
