you have to be offered a job to get it. Dabo would/shoudl have been choice number like 10-15 on bama's list and it never would've gotten that far. Dabo is by far the most overrated coach in the game today. I've posted the full stats countless times and don't feel like searching for them again but Dabo is essentially a worse version of mark richt in a weaker conference, that jsut so happened ot have two "generational" (although I hate that term) QBs almost back to back. Without a 1st overall pick bonafide NFL starter at QB he has done practically nothing. In fact, there was a 1-year gap sandwiched in between deshaun/trevor, and in that year they managed to lose to an 8-loss syracuse team and got shellacked by bama and didn't even score 7 points.

A solid and astute point. Georgia under Kirby has also taken out a key pipeline into the state that Clemson was utilizing beforehand.

Also, I’m usually not one to subscribe to “sign stealing” rumors but when almost every coach they played in the ACC has publicly verified Clemson was notorious for stealing signs — and then their run of success comes to a screeching halt once this was public knowledge — kind of hard to ignore.
