Dabo was on the hot seat in 2010 for having two out of three losing seasons. When kiffin was hired at Tennessee, he told Taj Boyd, who was committed to Tennessee to look elsewhere. Wasn’t his type of qb. Boyd went to Clemson and Clemson started winning. They have since had a great run of successful Qbs.

If Boyd doesn’t go to Clemson, this dabo Run May never have happened.

That’s a fun story if Dabo Swinney had 2 losing seasons.

If dabo doesnt hire Chad Morris, then I'm not sure having Boyd or not matters.

Ok. Can you now tie this into LSU somehow. It must relate, because it's posted on the TIGER rant.

Dabo has surrounded himself with great coaches, that's been a major key to his success. This is exactly the same recipe LSU needs to do with Orgeron. Easier said than done, but with Aranda here he's already got an elite DC. I think the big increase in analysts and shadow staff has been tremendous, too.

Yeah. He’s really struggled without Morris.

I truly believe that the 2012 CFA Bowl was the turning point for their program.

What I don’t get is this militaristic “has to be specifically related to the Tigers” rigidity. What if it’s Tiger fans wanting to talk about tangential topics with other Tiger fan? I mean, do we need to draw a map on how Kiffin and Dabo impact Tiger football every time?

I think it looks like this in his mind:
LSU beat Oregon, Kiffin is friends with O, O likes Gumbo, Morris helped some, the QB was better suited somewhere else, and we can't beat Bama yet. There you have it.

That's why chicken was kind enough to make plenty of other boards to do exactly this. The More Sports Board would be the perfect fit.

Dabo Swinney is 55-4 in the last 4 years, with 2 of those losses being to Bama.

No one...NO ONE...saw that coming

That's not the point I'm making...their offense looked like ours before he hired him.

Hopefully, this Fiesta Bowl was LSU's turning point.

Every QB who has played for Dabo has been solid or better. There's no reason to think that _______ would be the exception.
