Dabo Swinney’s buyout to be fired by Clemson INCREASES from $57 million in 2026 to $60 million starting in 2027, according to details reported by CBS Sports.

The AD that agreed to that has to be fired. They will have to keep him for 2-3 more years

They'll take out a loan or some school official or board member can/will step in and micro manage his program, so much so, Dabo quits on his own and retires.
Mandated coaching hires. Mandated portal acquisitions, mandated GM of their choosing so Dabo is basically nothing more than empty vessel on the sidelines with no real power. And all hiring/firing of staff has to be approved by BOT. He obviously cannot be trusted to competantly run a program in today's setup.
Thats what I'd do.

It's Clemson. They had a nice run, but let's settle down.

They decided that Bama was going to try to hire him away when Saban retired and decided they needed to give him a lifetime contract to keep him from leaving.
Oops.

ANY AD that agrees to that much of a buyout is insane.

Newspring Church money doesn't go as far as it used to.

Even worse.....Dabo doesn't have an offset / mitigation clause. So they're on the hook for the entire $57-60 million regardless of whether Dabo gets another job.

I think this is the rare case where a fanbase needs to sit and think about where they used to be and where they got to and just accept the monkeypaw

At this point it would be cheaper for Clemson to pay another school to hire him away from them.
I wonder if his extortionate contract has an offset clause where, if he gets fired and then hired by someone else the buyout is offset by the new salary?
Given that Dabo was able to weasel that contract on the Clemson admin, my guess is "no" and they'll enjoy the fruits of his coaching success for a few more years - and like it.

Has anyone asked Jimmy Sexton (boo, hiss) if he has a replacement?
I don't know who is the Seton equivalent for South Carolina and Clemson, but I know Sexton was one hell-inspired puppet master affecting Tennessee with the HD, the AD and Kiffin in his stable of people. He also did some maneuvering with Tuberville, IIRC.
Who are the people Dabo pays to advise him on this sort of thing (and who wrote those money drainng contracts?)

From google ai, so maybe not correct but-
“ If the University of Alabama fires head football coach Kalen DeBoer without cause, the school owes him 90% of his remaining guaranteed compensation, and he has no offset or duty to mitigate”
“ As of late 2026, firing him would cost the university roughly $67.5 million to $73 million depending on the exact timing”

The AD needs to tell him here is what will happen. We are hiring a GM to run business / NIL. He makes the deals and signs players, you just coach. Tell him he either accepts it or he can quit.

easy..... bama fans get mad when people talk about what THEY would have to pay their HC, because they're too dumb to understand that if both teams had losing records this season the only truly safe one is Lane.
