The not criticizing Narduzzi was supposed be a joke.
Even after they’ve been around for years one can still learn something watching how coaches handle in game decisions. What this showed me was that even when making a bonehead decision none of the Clemson assistants were willing to correct Dabo even when it’s obvious to every else watching the game. Even later when they scored with more than 2 minutes left and 2 timeouts he did the same thing again. I guarantee that by then he knew that he screwed it up the first time, yet he still kicked another XP. That shows me he is incredibly stubborn and didn’t want to admit he did something stupid the first time. I had been willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on his refusing to utilize the transfer portal, but what he did tonight showed me it’s his being stubborn about his way being the right way that he doesn’t use it even though it is undeniably affecting the ability of his program to compete at the highest level as it did a few years ago.
I’m of course well aware what he’s accomplished in the past, his resume stacks up against anybody’s. I’m also comfortable saying his Clemson team will never be a serious threat to win a NC again unless he admits he has to change his ways and start doing things differently.
