The recruiting gurus would have to chime in but from my casual observer seat I seem to recall Dabo being very anti-NIL and recruiting reflecting that?

Could be a cautionary tale for those who don't believe talent follows money (in any walk of life).

My $.02 - he's the classic CEO head coach who doesn't handle the details very well. Dabo had GREAT Assistants at one point.

It took him 2-3 years - but look how much better Oklahoma looks under Venables

Clemson Tigers (official thread)

I don’t know man. It’s not like Clemson can’t figure the monetary piece out if they just pivoted their philosophy. If you’re the board at Clemson or the AD isn’t that a tough convo opportunity?

Look we want this to work, but there needs to be a shift in the way things are done or we need to look for a better fit if as the sport changes and the on field results continue in this direction.

I mean whatever I don’t care fuck the entire school, its fanbase and everything about them but the sensibility aspect is what’s baffling to me.

it basically took Ohio State a season to realize “shit, we need to fork it out or we are going to become ND”

By his public comments (many of them) I think Dabo actually has an issue with players getting NIL money (but he was fine paying under the table as pointed out above).

Maybe it's because he could tell himself he wasn't cheating the former way and now he finds some wired morality issue around the players being paid legally?

Why can tell what goes through the mind of Southern American, fake tv preacher types? Besides of course this whenever it suits them:

Game Thread #1 tOSU at Washington, Sat. Sept. 27th, 3:30 ET, CBS

Apparently we’ve learned our lesson because the guys are going out there Thursday to give them an extra day. Also, Matt Patricia did not go out recruiting this weekend because he wanted to dial in the game plan. All this according to Birm and Austin. That’s great news obviously.

I hear the argument that they haven’t played anyone but to have no punts? I think we punted vs Grambling at least once so that’s just impossible to do. What I will say is oddly they left their starters in all game vs Wazzu and most of the others game too.

No doubt this buckeye defense is an enormous step up for them. The goal has got to be to stop the run and play more zone than man. We can’t afford to have our defenders with the back to the QB. I expect us to do just that though do we’ll see.

If you really analyze the schedule this has to be the biggest defensive challenge we’ll have all year. Penn State doesn’t have this and I’ve seen Oregon and they don’t concern me like last year either. The only question I have is how good is this UW OL?

All this to say the offense has to do their part. We have to start fast, we have to put them behind on the scoreboard, and we have to let them know they’ll need touchdowns all day to win.

It is the hardest defensive challenge we have had, on paper. But it's really hard to tell how good Washington really is. Ohio is significantly better than anyone Washington has played to put things into perspective.

Their Oline looks shaky in pass protection. They allowed 3 sacks again against Wazzu.

Washingtons defense gave up 24 points (yes all by the starters) to a Wazzu team who scored 10 against North Texas and 13 against Idaho. Run D didn't allow much but Their secondary looks like a question mark.

For the record, that is in Fort Wayne, Indiana. That looked a lot like the Speedway Shopping Center, where I used to have an office. Friends told me that things had changed, so I looked it up. I burst out laughing when I saw that they had a Facebook page. Wonder if they run ads on WOWO radio, remember when they rocked AM radio with WLS?
