Heupel = Dabo

[DocVol]

Both refuse to either load up on portal talent as a necessary part of CFB now, or, they're both not not viewed as great portal options from portal players (assuming they try).

It's well-known Dabo has tried to forgo the portal and instead recruited 90% HS--boosters are not happy and calling for his head because of it. It's been a slow burn but not working out well for him and the Clemson faithful.

Heupel is following in these very footsteps. Lackluster portal results yet again, not much interest from portal players, and still digging in and trying to majority-recruit HS players as if it were still 2022.

Both are dinosaurs and both will not survive the current trajectory. Look and see what happens to Dabo in the next year or two, and Heupel is close to follow.

 

[Volbrando]

portal transfers aren't done yet, but I believe the days of trying to have a top 10 HS recruiting class now means little to nothing as do the stars by some of the players names

Some concerns are definitely surfacing.

I agree but Dabo much more accomplished coach than Josh

I hope so. Dabo has two Nattys.

Dabo is actually hitting the portal much more right now, especially on defense. It's a necessity if he's going to survive much longer at Clemson.

I'm betting that Tom Allen is a big part of portalng defenders.

Rumors are that Clemson may take Lagway IF he will take a little less in up front NIL than he's asking.

You are so wrong and probably even know it. We are going to have 1st and 2nd round picks we got from the portal. ONL was a 3rd last year. Most of the people who read this are in the know. Dabo REFUSED to use the portal for years. There is no comparison. Do just a bit of research. Like others have said, it is day freaking 3 of the portal being opened.

 

[Behr]

Is the portal closed already? That sucks. I thought we had 9 more days.

Welp.

It's important to be the first in proclamations of doom, gloom, and misery. Can't wait for the portal to close. Too much at stake.

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

This is a pretty ridiculous take. Dabo has taken practically no portal players since it started until maybe one or two this last year. Clemson's roster only bled through the portal, it did not gain FOR YEARS Heupel has taken players every year, we just don't always get everyone we want. It's not for lack of trying.

Refuse or don’t have the money that some programs do?

 

[vol94]

As usual, we have fans chomping at the bit to complain not knowing all the facts.

TN made the playoffs in 2024.

Let the head coach do his job and see where we land over the next two yrs.

 

[Zues1]

Dabo too stubborn to play the " new game"
Heupel..

Have you even watched any Tennessee football? Some of our best players since he's been here are from the portal

 

[whm324]

In addition, when the portal closes, UT classes will still have another 5 days until they begin. So, that means they can sign people for another week or so and they can still enroll in classes and be eligible for spring workouts.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Dabo has two natty's. I'd say its more like...

Huepel < Dabo.

 

[Doberman]

Not sure it worked when you guys were young, but when we picked teams, the best guys came off the board first, so telling me the portal is open for 5 more days doesn’t give warm fuzzies.

There are still some big fish, but they are coming off the board quickly.

 

[TNinSC]

I'll take two national championships.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

I thought it was pretty cool when Joe Milton threw a touchdown pass to Bru McCoy in the Orange Bowl when Heupel beat Dabo. Then had Chase McGrath kick 4 PATs and a FG. Maybe that’s just me though.

There are others “in the know” that admit TN has fallen behind in handling the portal this year and I tend to believe them at this point.

 

[GrizzlyVol]

It took Dabo awhile but they quit "Clemsoning" and won Championships that would be nice I prefer that comparison
