If the rumor that he, in fact, turned down the UT job last offseason, he instead takes the Virginia job?
So either that rumor isn’t true, or he thinks Virginia is a better coaching job than UT…yikes.
Believe it or not, here in south west Indiana, I work with 3 Clemson alumni. All are rather attuned to the football program.
Seems like the rumors going around Clemson was Dabo taking a really hard look at the offense after this year.
Could be Elliot was for the first time feeling pressure of scrutiny and decided now was the best time for him to bow out...???
Clemson finally got average QB play after 4 studs and still won 9 games. DJ simply is a bust but came on late. I think Clemson moves on from him but it’s not like Clemson fell off. They finally had a 5 Star QB that didn’t play like the 4 previous QB’s.
They have a stud qb from tx committed to them right now. DJ will probably be the one hitting the portalYup. Even Kelly Bryant was a good QB for them, so it isn't entirely 5 star QBs who have had success with them. DJ was pretty bad. Who knows if he'll turn into a star, but I imagine Clemson will be looking at a few names in the portal.
Or he didn’t anticipate the season was going to have with his QB that was all hype and no wins.If the rumor that he, in fact, turned down the UT job last offseason, he instead takes the Virginia job?

His star has faded given the performance of their offense this year. He'd be lucky to get the Virginia job now and wouldn't be offered to UT job. Bullet dodged.
No he messed up his stock plummeted and he got the best he could get that's what 1 year can do to a coordinator.If the rumor that he, in fact, turned down the UT job last offseason, he instead takes the Virginia job?

What does that have to do with being the HBC?Or maybe he didn't want to risk his first foray into HC to be at a school that was looking at possible sanctions and had a sabatuer in the ranks that turned in the last coach? This was a risky job to take for anyone. For a guy like Elliot, he might not a get another HC opportunity if he were to come here and fail. He'll have a longer leash at VA as long as he has a decent record.
Also, even though the football program isn't that good, Virginia is a pretty elite public university. Certainly more prestigious than UT.
No the reality is that his QB in 2020 threw for 3153 yards, 24 TD and 5 ints.If the rumor that he, in fact, turned down the UT job last offseason, he instead takes the Virginia job?

FairNo the reality is that his QB in 2020 threw for 3153 yards, 24 TD and 5 ints.
His QB in 2021 threw for 2059 yards, 9 TD and 9 ints.
He knew that if he ever wanted to be a head coach he better get it now because another year like the last one and he would not even get an OC job, let alone a HC job.
