Still, Dabo Swinney reverted to a similar approach on Monday, suggesting that if the school no longer felt he was doing a satisfactory job coaching the Tigers, he would go elsewhere.
"I work for the board of trustees, the president and the AD, and if they're tired of me leading this program, all they got to do is let me know. I'll go somewhere else where there is an appreciation," Swinney said, adding that he has 15 more years left in coaching. "I don't know if it'll be here, but it'll be somewhere."



I wonder if any school in the SEC would hire a natty winning/fast talking used car salesman who is struggling at his current gig in the ACC?

Especially one highly experienced in cult relations?

I thought he said he would quit if we started paying players?

Every school in the SEC except for Alabama and Georgia would hire Dabo.

LSU seems warm and cold on Kelly. If he loses to Alabama they will call for his head but love him even more if he wins.

Nope. Lane > Dabo. I think the others could do better too.

without a mega-elite S-tier #1 overall draft pick at QB dabo is no better than mark richt. The fact that dabo 1)doesnt' have a QB of that caliber 2)lsot his long time right hand man DC 3)refuses to adapt to the portal 4) is not recruiting the overall caliber of class he used to...is reason enough for many schools to probably shy away from him. Just off the cuff I have to think bama, uga, UK, missouri, Tenn, texas, AU, LS, and ole miss would prefer to keep their current coach than trade in for dabo.

Using the width attribute at the end of the img markup link.

Here's an example:

The checkmarks are just a clipart image that I set to display at a width of 20 pixels (it's actually much larger).

Dabo is Jimbo whose "elite" period lasted a few more years because he had 2 generational QBs instead of just one and held on to his coordinators longer. They're both simple minded hicks who were in the right place at the right time

Delusional Ole Miss fan thinks a coach that beat Alabama twice in the national title game and won no less than 10 games 12 times in a row and only as few as 10 only 4 times in that stretch.

Look at this
10-4
11-2
11-2
10-3
14-1
14-1
12-2
15-0
14-1
10-2
10-3
11-3

My Goodness how stupid are Ole Miss fans?

I would take him right now mid-season today.


Let's see Lane's record....

Yeah we have this weird thing about expecting coaches to actually win. I know that's probably hard for an A&M fan to grasp.

The only 2 schools that would not trade their coach for Dabo are Alabama and Georgia and maybe LSU when Kelly is winning. The rest would pull the trigger on that trade.

Dabo is down now but I believe he will be back.

Dabo did this in the ACC.

Playing a full schedule in the SEC is simply not comparable to playing a full schedule in the ACC or B1G.

Jimbo also had that luxury at FSU and now compare that with what he has done lately.

I think that even sells Richt short.

And I think you can say that about a lot of coaches.

Jimbo, as already mentioned.
Dabo
Day
Chizik
Riley

You could probably say that about every coach not named Saban or Smart.

I always figured my htmlgoodies.com experience would pay off one day.. little did i know it would be on tRant

eta: And i’m sure no one gets that reference, but back in the late 90s, it was a website that gave simple tutorials to create web pages.
