For those of you who were not interested in watching Clemson beat the snot (again) out of the Criminoles yesterday, there was an episode right before the half where Dabo demonstrated (again) what a jackass he can be. For those who do not follow Dabo's tirades it is not easy to do, because he is a media darling. He is rarely called out for his temper tantrums and sideline tirades, which are every bit as epic as Kelly's were, and they are not compiled and publicized the way they are/were for the head football coach at ND. Dabo is great during interviews and everyone likes someone being able to beat Saban, and give it to the Hurricanes and Seminoles like he has. He has built a great program and recruited very well, but the guy can be a complete ass. Below is a link to the only coverage I found on it. You have to watch the 1 minute video in the story to get a complete feel for it.

I dare to say, that if Brian Kelly acted like this toward Doerer in a game where we were up 28-0 and Doerer missed a FG right before the half to put us up 31-0, there would be a large contingent, including media, that would be running this clip over and over and calling for some sort of response from the admin - potentially severe. I am not a Kelly apologist. I have never gotten over him throwing the Weis recruits under the bus following the 2011 loss to USC (and it's been 8 years), but people need to come to grips with the fact that there are very few college football coaches, even the seemingly "nice"/"cool" ones that are not Grade A jags. That said, Clemson seems to be absolutely fine with it at the moment.
