If the playoffs didn't exist yet (like they didn't during richt's first 8 years) then Dabo wouldn't have a title or any top 2 finishes either (since both came in the last 2 years)

I don't quite understand this point.

This year, the year that gave dabo his trump card over richt, Clemson was ranked 3rd by both teh AP and coaches after championship weekend. If the playoffs didn't exist (like they didn't for richt), dabo doesnt' play for a title much less win one. In 2015 they were ranked in the top 2 so even if the system existed as it did for richt dabo would have played for a title, but as we saw on teh field alabama won so again, no title for dabo.

The only reason anyone can say "yes dabo is undoubtedly a better coach than richt is because he won a national title"...but the only reason he won one was because of a system that helped them out that didn't even exist for richt.
