Does anyone else think we are waiting till after the national championship game to do another interview? Dabo Swinney is really high on my list. And in other threads I’ve read a lot of people make good reasons why he or any other college coaches wouldn’t succeed here or in the nfl, but he seems to have the tangibles, personality, acumen to succeed in the NFL if he wanted to make the jump. He’s not the arrogant prick Chip Kelly is. Look how Kelly is doing at UCLA, leads me to believe he was nothing but a flash in the pan. Dabo has built a complete program there in Clemson. Offense, defense, STs. If a different situation than Kelly had at Oregon.
I think Dabo is a good coach. Maybe not as much swagger as a Pete Carroll but think he has a similar personality and draw to people. Dabo took a mostly dead Clemson program who hadn't won an ACC title in almost 20 years and turned them into a powerhouse.
That said, I don't see him coming to the Bengals. Would certainly be a spark for the fanbase though, in my opinion
