Other than being great football coaches, what Dabo and Frank have most in common is that they are first class individuals. Respect.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

It's nice but I will NEVER root for Clemson.

It's nice but I will NEVER root for Clemson....unless they're playing an over-hyped team from the SEC. Or ND.

FTFY

Dabo is legitimately a great guy. But it's hard to root for them living in the upstate of SC and having gone to Clemson because their fanbase is exceptionally delusional and annoying.

I mean a lot of Hokie fans hate Dabo, but I respect the heck out of the guy.

That's the kind of coach I hope we can bring in here. I know we can't duplicate Frank but I really hope Shane can add some chops to his coaching experience and one day come back back and take over Franks legacy.

I have to admit, this was a hell of a great gesture. Good on ya Dabo.

21st century QBs Undefeated vs UVA:
MV7, MV5, LT3, Grant Wells, Braxton Burmeister, Ryan Willis, Josh Jackson, Jerod Evans, Michael Brewer, Tyrod Taylor, Sean Glennon, and Grant Noel. That's right, UVA. You couldn't beat Grant Noel.

Dammit ya beat me to it Joe. Was gonna post up this exact same thing. But yes, a very class gent gesture. I'm still not over 2011, and I won't root for Clemson, but I respect Dabo for that gesture. I hope there'll be more to come from other HCs around the league. Thanks Dabo.

Alright, alright... between not playing them this year and now this, I'd like to see Clemson go all the way.

Can I get a high five?

Do we have the Brady celebration from their close call this past weekend yet? I feel like he tried to high five people again and got dissed, again.

Man, snubbed high-fives really take the air out of things.

Just curious, does anyone else yell "SLAP HANDS! SLAP HANDS!" anytime we score? Or is that just me and my friends?

I do because I have a strong displeasure for the term "high five." I have no idea why.
