We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Nick Saban has blasted the Bama fans before, Coach K would yell at the Cameron Crazies during a dang ball game, Tar Hole fans would get disgruntled and question Roy or Dean: Dabo is all of their same class of coaches -

he's a hall of famer.

He don't need to apologize for making 10 million a year, he's won 2 Natty's, he's given that state, school and fan base great times and many memories. He's building back the portal teams will go back to being bad in 18 months, Tigers will prevail.

Hell with Tyler!!

I'm fine with folks asking people in "powerful" positions the tough questions and providing accountability.

There is a professional way to do so and quite frankly that is lacking in many facets of society today, both the professionalism and accountability.
Asking the "tough questions" is fine but this guy was commenting on "ego" and "pride" and personality issues. That's not asking the tough questions. That's a personal attack and he was being a prick. I don't blame Dabo for his response. Probably could have been more tactful, but nothing he said was wrong.

When you take those high-paying jobs, expect high pressure. Looks like it got the best of him on this day. He should try having a high-stress job and making less than 60,000 a year. I have a hard time feeling sorry for him.
I know what you do and thank you very much. You have a hard and dangerous job!!!!

Man it's gotten a lot safer these last few years. Left one place for another and switched divisions. 5 years left...

Neither party was professional, was one of my points.

Drink had no personality but I would take him all day over what we have now. He knew how to win which current staff does not.

I'm not saying he's a better coach overall, but Missouri does have a better record and higher ranking than Clemson.

Well, I would phrase my question as ignorant as the caller did...to give the coach an opening for a response in such a manner..I am no dabo fan or hater.. neutral on him...with that, some people think they have to right to ask a question in any format or way just due to the fact that a person makes a gazillion dollars. I do. Not ascribe to that line of thinking. Could dabo answered in a different fashion, sure. I actually find humor in how he answered.
