It could be worse. You could be a Clemson fan today.
Dabo’s gotta replace both coordinators. His AD is about to bolt for greener pastures in Miami. He’s got a quarterback problem that makes Smart’s look simple.
All that’s before you get to that hideous purple/orange jersey configuration. Just sayin’.

Nah, I hate the O’s too. I attended UGA as an out-of-state student, and the closest MLB team for me wasn’t the Braves but the Washington Senators. My allegiance gradually shifted to the Braves by the early 1980s, but the return of MLB to Washington left me highly conflicted (especially since I hold a degree from a DC school as well as from UGA).

Just shows how fast a situation can change. You better have backups for your backups and be a flexible and capable manager. Satan (er, Sabin) excels at this. I think Kirby Smart does too. Dabo has held his crew together for awhile, he is probably more resilient than we think.

It will certainly be interesting to see how Clemson and Dabo respond. Many opined that Venables was cut from the same cloth as Bud Foster and would be happy just remaining a DC and losing Venables is a big deal. Saban has been able to make regular DC and OC changes largely blips on the radar. We are about to see if Dabo can do the same.

Kirby left his generational QB talents to rot on the sideline so that he could start the game manager and the walk-on. Dabo benched his veteran starter (that got clobbered by Bama the previous year) part way through the season so that Sunshine could lead them to a title where they delivered Saban his worst loss since 2007.

It’s somewhat commendable that Dabo has had the success he has without abusing the portal or being a rehab center for coaches. It might bite him, though.

I don’t know if I’d call it commendable. Basically all Dabo did was mount up on his usual high horse, acting like he was somehow above using the transfer portal to fill immediate roster needs, and that stubbornness is a big part of the reason why his squad went from perennial national title contender to 9–3 with a busted-ass offense. I guess you could say he stuck to his principles, but I’m not sure those principles are any loftier than believing players surrender all rights once they sign with his program.
