Not really. He was almost fired year two. Boosters and board members wanted him gone, only the AD had faith in him.


Dabo wasn’t going anywhere. The fan base didn’t initially like the hire bc they wanted a big name. They for some reason that year thought they were getting Mike Leach or pretty boy Lane. They wanted Napier gone bc he was awful & a child the year they went 6-7 & Dabo brought in Chad Morris & they started killing it. They called for his head & Steele’s more after giving up 77 in the bowl game than year two. But people loved Dabo after the interim & first year.

Funny the slight connects to LSU. Steele, Napier to ULL & now Morris at Arkansas.

That has nothing to do with what we're discussing, you only bring that up to try and draw a comparison between the two coaches in an attempt to argue that O deserves just as much time.


My take on this. Clemson was a middle of pack ACC team. Dabo BUILT Clemson. He turned them into a yearly championship contender with NFL talent. His leash was longer to win because the expectation to win 11/12 games was nonexistent. O came into the program with a legacy of NFL talent & NC wins. If O was to remotely go anywhere near 6-7 like Dabo did in his third year he’d be out the door no questions asked because the expectation is to win big at LSU. Dabo changed the course of that program. 10-4 the next year, 11-2 beat LSU in a bowl, then proceeded to go to 3 national championships & 2 major bowl games. He’s lost 4 games in the last 4 years. There’s a difference between being handed the keys & making the damn keys yourself.

Dabo not only recruits QBs but they produce. 4 of them. Boyd, Watson, Bryant, & now Lawerence. Any one of those guys you’d plug in for LSU, even Bryant. But he’s also had great hires.

He's had one good season


His one good season he lost 3 games & won the Fiesta. So many hate on UT for claiming “We’re Back” after losing 4 games & winning the Sugar. The same logic applies. It’s laughable to claim to be a perennial powerhouse & lose 3 games & it be acceptable. O’s measuring stick will be & should be winning SEC titles, beating Bama, & making the playoffs. O’s 2.5 seasons are exactly what Les did in the last 4 before he got fired & it was deemed unacceptable amongst the fan base. When O’s recruiting classes come through those W/L will determine whether or not he remains the head coach

This team reminds me of the early 2000s UConn teams. Solid guard play, big body athletes, not overly disciplined, but can out athlete you & outscore you.

don’t understand how texas basketball always underachieves


My guess from paying attention to the program is coaches don’t get to coach. Politics. Boosters. Shaka is a hell of coach & it blows my mind that he can’t win there. Texas runs deep with talen in HS basketball especially in the DFW. For some reason they don’t steer towards UT.

How is that guy 5-4? Solid team.

re: James connor for James white?

Risky. You’ll be mad if Bell doesn’t actually come back. But I wouldn’t do it. White has so much value in PPR with how weak the RB position is.

Stupid or 5-0 trying not to make a move to lose a whole lot of money. Personally i think I can runway as is BUT like I said the curiosity in me had to get other takes.

is this a brag thread for getting Zeke for basically nothing? He's giving you a top 3 running back and a top TE for James white(good), Mccoy(Old and awful), and Nelson(old and average).


Not @ all man. I’m undefeated. White is from a fantasy perspective phenomenal right now. I don’t necessarily need Kittle (I’ve got cook) or Clement. BUT I’m looking into from different angles as in I’ll only have 2 rbs on my roster if I make the move & zero depth. Starters would be beyond ridiculous though but bye weeks might get me.

Not that amazing brah. I’m undefeated. Roster is loaded. Really have no reason to shake up the roster. I don’t make trades based on name alone. More out of curiousity what people thought of the move.

Being offered Zeke

14 team league my team is stacked. Guy is now 1-4 wanting to change up his roster

Diggs
Cooks
Cook

McCoy
Nelson
Shepard
Seals Jones
L. Murray

Yes yes I know. Loaded. Getting ansy though. I don’t know if Cooks maintains his target share. Also. A guy was 0-3 & I sold extra high on Tate & Breida & he gave up A. Brown. ??????

14 team league. 1 point PPR.
2 RB/2 WR/ Flex

Brees
McCaffrey
J. White
Diggs
Cooks
A. Brown
Cook

Bench - McCoy, Shepard, Nelson, Seals-Jones, Flacco, Murray.

3-1 right now. Considering trying to make a move for Zeke or AJ Green. Guy has both on his roster & is 1-3 & desperate to make moves. Who would you move? Or make no moves?
