Dabo Swinney's Stock Value

[buckeyeFB_]

I personally think Venables has more to do with Clemson's success than Dabo, and Dabo is just incredibly lucky he has a really good DC who (for some reason) doesn't seem to want to be a head coach.

Dabo was 29-19 at Clemson before Venables got there. Since Venables has gotten to Clemson, they've went 115-17.

We saw how Clemson was in 2017 when they didn't have a 1st-round QB. They scraped out a 12-1 record before bowl season almost solely due to their defense. Then when they played Bama in the Sugar Bowl, they could barely gain a yard against y'all.

Their defense has had some bad luck with injuries this season, yet their defense is the only reason they have any wins and have kept all of their losses close.

I'm not trying to be that guy who acts like Brent Venables is the greatest thing ever, but I still think he deserves more of the credit for Clemson's success than Dabo.

His stock has plummeted faster than AOL in the late 2000s.

Dabo was already considering leaving to go to the ACC Network. They wanted to team him up with Mark Richt in studio but, after consulting constitutional legal experts, most felt it would fall in the realm of “cruel and unusual punishment” so the idea was nixed.

There has always been the talk that when Saban retires, Bama will go after Dabo. Do you believe that still to be the case now given that his team looks like garbage now?

 

[VirginiaTide57]

Venables may be similar to Bud Foster, who was the defensive coordinator at Virginia Tech under Frank Beamer for over 30 years. Whenever he was considered for a head coaching position it was rumored he didn't interview well. Some coaches are destined to always be a number 2. If Smart doesn't win a NC this year, I will believe he should have stayed as an assistant. I'm not convinced he can win it all.

Dabo is basically an Auburn head coach in a far inferior conference. He talks cow, acts cow, and thinks cow. If we hired him then we are probably going back to losing to the Mississippi States and Kentuckys of the world again.

 

[81usaf92]

I didn't want Dabo under any circumstances. Now that he can't beat Pitt, I'd say yeah, his stock has gone way down.

The dude lost to Pittsburgh with Watson… I don’t think his stock was ever high for me after that point.

I personally think Venables sign stealing has more to do with Clemson's success than Dabo,

FIFY

 

[Tide&True]

Do they still have Penny stocks?

FIFY

Now that people have caught on and don’t allow that his stock has really tanked

 

[Relayer]

I don't think he'll ever be at Bama, but his real stock value probably depends more on what happens next year.

FIFY

You know, it's a fair point - roughly around the time that news broke and became known wide-spread we've seen a distinct downturn in the apparent genius of Vulnerable.

If I were a Clemson fan (shudder the thought) I'd be worried. Dabo doesn't seem know the answer.

 

[tlockwood]

I used to be on the fence about Dabo when he was was winning. But the past couple of years have washed away any positive thoughts I had about him. The way he conducts himself is embarrassing. The whole thing with Ohio St last year was the nail in the coffin.

 

[AlistarWills]

You know, it's a fair point - roughly around the time that news broke and became known wide-spread we've seen a distinct downturn in the apparent genius of Vulnerable.

Could it be that teams have learned to disguise their signals and/or change them so that Venables can’t know what they are running which has led to their fall?

LOL! This is hilarious LOL!

He’s probably got a want ad in the paper for an expert signal decryption tech

 

[bamamc1]

I'd prefer Mel Tucker.....and hope Dabo never receives a call.

Or Mel Gibson, Mel Brooks, Mel Blount, Mel Tillis or Mel Allen. Anyone but Karen.

Not Mel Tillis......... We’d never get a play called in time
