I'm not so sure.

They're currently 3-5 and likely to split their last 4. If they end up with a losing record, no bowl, and 2 straight losses to Shane... I'm not sure Dabo survives. It also doesn't help that the more their program has declined, the more he has dug in and lashed out against any/all criticism... which is usually a hallmark of a stubborn older coach who's on the downhill slide, but his ego won't allow him to see that. It happens to most of them, Saban is one of the few exceptions.

Serious doubt Dabo is fired this year..I do think his new DC needs to
VT757to276 • 11/04/25 05:00 PM ET
Dabo should just retire.
NoHuddle • 11/04/25 04:21 PM ET
Glad to know the offer has a deadline\expiration date**
Turk Malloy • 11/04/25 04:03 PM ET
Apparently, it's not an expiration date. VT will simply start
Tank • 11/04/25 04:14 PM ET
Dabo is not getting fired geez**
fordham • 11/04/25 03:34 PM ET
Doubt he will be fired this year.
RJHokie • 11/04/25 03:50 PM ET
Agree on FSU finances**

RJHokie • 11/04/25 05:36 PM ET
it is a Beamerish situation
Vippie1 • 11/04/25 04:54 PM ET
Wednesday deadline is being too gracious IMO
Hokiefied • 11/04/25 03:30 PM ET
Wouldn't a different coach think, "Hey, they really wanted JF, not me?".
Coach McGuirk • 11/04/25 05:47 PM ET
My thoughts exactly.
MP4VT2004 • 11/04/25 08:53 PM ET
Yep but if the other coach wants to be at VT, it will be an opportunity
Hokiefied • 11/04/25 06:04 PM ET
That doesn't mean the other coach wants to be at VT.**
Coach McGuirk • 11/04/25 06:56 PM ET
If multiple coaches aren't interested in the VT job, then what does that
VTHokie2000 • 11/04/25 08:34 PM ET
You have a rigth to hold your opinion but high level negotiations between..
NativeBurger • 11/04/25 03:37 PM ET
We’ve already given up all other leverage for a guy who isn’t in demand…
Hokiefied • 11/04/25 04:00 PM ET
He can probably have Florida State job if holds out just a little longer.**
khakiblue • 11/04/25 03:19 PM ET
Yeah, FSU firing HC seems more certain than Clemson based on results
HokieAl • 11/04/25 03:22 PM ET
If he wants Fl State, you better believe he’s already been talking to them,
Stork • 11/04/25 04:47 PM ET
For those don't like the stuff I SHARE
JRHokie • 11/04/25 03:18 PM ET
Keep up the good work. There will always be haters...**
HokieInClifton • 11/04/25 03:24 PM ET
Personally, I'd give Dabo at least another year. He's earned imho**
albacheeser_alum • 11/04/25 03:18 PM ET
Yep...no need to join the current circus all chasing the same handful of
