Gubbs, but now I’m realizing I have, like, four Clemson posters on ignore. Guessing that happened the same night I bailed on ten group messages and called Dabo a pedophile on Twitter.
You don’t know what it’s like to have a coach you like that you would actually want to defend, but if you close your eyes and remember one of those Spurrier years maybe you can remember.
This reminds me, is Ryan Day still whining about blowing that huge lead to us and blaming the refs like the losers in his face base or has he stopped and focused purely on whining about how other schools go spring practices and he didn’t? I can’t keep track of him being a whiney little bitch.
-Says nothing about police -Nothing about past statements on Kapernick -Went with the whole "doesn't see color"
Dabo basically took the #allivesmatter route by just deflecting to religion. They wanted to hear him speak out specifically on how black people/poc are treated, police treatment, and he won't do it.
"Coach Swinney, TC here with TMB media. Some people think saying you don't see color is very problematic and racist. How would you address that? I'd also like to hear more about your revised opinion on Colin Kaepernick's kneeling protest. Do you think there is a police violence problem in this country? Wait what do you mean Clemson is pulling my press pass?"
I hope not. He should keep trying to appeal to men who would happily eat his asshole if asked like you.
Hahaha you are so clearly a petty loser. What did Muschamp say? Not that anyone gives a shit, but humor me.
I mean they make promises to look after 17-18 year-old men for 3-5 years with some kids thousands of miles away from home for the first time. I don't feel like teaching these boys how to become men is asking too much, but maybe the ask should end at baptizing them is some South Carolina lake.
Coaches spend their careers trying to help young people, many of them black, reach their potential in life. It's easy to say that "Dabo cares more than Kirby or Saban or whoever" just based off his personality and ability to relate, but I think all these guys genuinely care. You wouldn't last in that type of profession if you weren't passionate about it.
What about that whole college degree, or NFL thing...? Guess it doesn’t matter now and it was all a lie because Dabo didn’t come out and say the police should burn like 100% of all other CFB coaches.
Passionate about winning. You have to recruit the best players and they're majority black. Also passionate about cashing large checks too. I'm not saying they all are about this, but you get my point.
A five days of Q&A and prep time and the best he could do is bad shit happens, God will provide, let's move on? I feel like a 6 year old could have done that after Sunday school.
He didn't even speak out against the problem though. He should have acknowledged how blacks are being treated. By not, he's treating the George Floyd incident as an isolated incident, instead of an ongoing problem, which leaves us to assume he's in the group that doesn't think it's an issue. That was not a well done statement for this.
Under Swinney, Clemson has had fantastic graduation rates and started the P.A.W. journey to prepare players for life after football. Most seem to think he is doing a damn good job of helping them become men.
Pearl and Malzahn both publicly addressed the issue last Thursday on their Auburn Ambush show. He made another statement backing our AD's message on twitter Saturday. That's besides the point. Coaches like Dabo and Saban clearly have a larger platform, and with that comes the expectation to speak out when the people you are profiting off of, need you to.
I asked you what he said though. You didn’t provide that and your reasoning is “it doesn’t matter because Malzahn doesn’t have a platform due to his shit record”. The players will decide, not the auburn fan on the internet with a weird interest in speaking for them like he cares.
1. I hoped that Dabo would've addressed racism and inequality more in the press conference, disappointed he didn't 2. what Dabo says in a press conference to media may not = what he said to the players; would hope he would actually address the issue with the players/coaches/staff but who knows 3. not sure why DMX is comparing what Dabo said to Ryan Day, Kirby, etc.; really the only other coach to compare him to is Saban (or maybe Mack Brown) based on national visibility and importance. it's not as if the general public really cares what Gus Malzahn or Will Muschamp has to say on the subject; they do with Saban and Dabo due to their relevance and their prior views on these topics.
