I saw some show with Stephen A. Smith saying Dabo has been slow to get on the NIL and transfer portal program and is now playing catchup.
He has been very proud about this too... And it has cost them dearly.

Between that and a much less talented coaching staff and taking lots of players whose parents are friends and coaches (and are not DI material) he has really hurt his roster and can't coach them up.

Have you watched him play this season? He's hardly an "average" QB at best right now. He's not seeing wide open receivers, making grossly wrong reads at the line, etc. He's already thrown half the interceptions through three games that he threw all of last season. Below are Klubnik's stats through three games and Ty's stats through three games. Klubnik was supposed to have Ty's stats, and most pundits would have told you before the season that Ty would have Klubnik's stats. Dabo has a quarterback problem, just like Texas does.

I'm actually in agreement with you, but my post must not have come across that way. Sometimes "it's not as simple as QB" but in this case, I think it is.

He probably was feeling Dabo out. Meanwhile Byrne was on the phone with CKD offering a fully guaranteed contract and writing a blank check to Milroe.

I think as time passes we will learn more that there was a transition plan in place. But that all went in the hand basket when Saban abruptly retired which resulted in going into crisis mode.
Byrne knew Saban was thinking about retiring at some point before the Iron Bowl 2023. But had no idea Saban would announce it when he did. And, apparently, neither did Saban. I think Ms Terry had something to do with it, when she asked him, "Why are we doing this?". This was in discussion about players asking, "How much do I get?".

The cuse is beating their booty now, good Lord 24-7 I don't pray to the Almighty to help my football team, but if i were a Clemson fan, I might ask for a little help.

I keep seeing bama fans wanting Dabo and saying “Dabo should have gotten a call”. Yet this is the typical Clemson game
You have to have some cut throat tendencies... Dabo has gone all in on a much less good group of coaches and won't replace inadequate players from the portal. The world has changed and he hasn't changed with it. That and not having NFL players on the DL and a stud all world QB the last 6 years...

His holier than thou stubbornness wrt the portal and NIL has been his downfall.

At least he can now refer to his team as ‘Little Ole Clemson’ again and it’s not snark.

It’s accurate.
