Dabo wouldn’t let his commits go on OVs to other schools. But yes, now people are manipulating young men. Not before this. Definitely not

He has up til now, but i'm afraid if he doesn't change his outlook Clemson will get left behind a bit. I don't like the portal/NIL stuff either, but the mans got a job to do.

Yep. The only top 25 or so school in recruiting rankings with less is LSU, and y'all just had a coaching change. Dabo probably shouldn't choose to die on this hill.

I guess part of me admires that he refuses to use it but that’s a terrible strategy in today’s college football world

Dabo, on the transfer portal: "It's chaos right now. Tampering galore. Adults manipulating young men. Education is like the last thing now." Calls for the return of one-year sit for transfers, and get that year back upon graduation. "Keep the focus on graduation/education."

I think Dabo has lost 9 players to the portal this season. 3 have announced to USF (his former OC Jeff Scott).

He’s stated he’s adapting as he can’t replace 9 players with a few years of experience with high school recruits.

He might as well. (Though that in itself is funny given the Raiders history as one of the most undisciplined teams in the NFL, with the mess they have this year.)

After all the Bama job is off the table: Deion using Jackson State as the quasi-portal for future Crimson Tide players has him lined up when Saban retires.

Everyone better adapt or get ready for a roller coaster ride from season to season.

Because students can’t transfer schools? Like Clemson is a ducking Ivy or something?

Does he complain when his players leave for smaller schools so he can keep signing 25 person classes?

No.

This is the same coach who just happened to be reading a bi le when a 5 star walked into his office like you can just stroll in there without him knowing.

Talking about manipulating young men.

Exactly. All the school is required to do is provide the OPPORTUNITY to earn a degree. Whether the player/student wants to actually do the necessary coursework to earn one is on him.

Perhaps for the individual, but it ultimately doesn't benefit society as a whole if school are simply just "handing" out degrees. If everyone has a degree than there is nothing special about having a degree.

Dabo is a douche that is 100% right on this. Who wants to watch an NFL where every player is on a one year deal

I do like the idea. If you transfer and then get a degree, you get an extra year.
