God, Dabo, and Clemson

Dabo, by his own admission, is a Christian. Some may find that to be offensive, others, an attribute. To have strong faith and exhibit it in one's life is not always well received, and such people are often belittled or criticized by those who don't share that same level of faith. Obviously, many parents, along with their talented sons, want a football atmosphere in which Godly traits are instilled and embellished. Seemingly, Dabo is doing this. Is he doing so only because it helps recruiting, or because he believes it will help these young men be better people? None of us are in a position to make that determination. Sadly, it sometimes seems more fashionable to criticize a person of faith that to complement them. I am a VT graduate and hope the good/great players come to Tech to play. But if they go to Clemson instead, I won't belittle them nor will I suggest that Dabo is not sincere in his faith. Dabo believes God is helping him and Clemson in being successful and is thankful for it. What is wrong with that?

Dabo has said some really dumb "God" things which are sadly common and dumb
HokiePokie95 12/22/22 06:08 PM ET
Was that the game where Trevor Lawrence was also saying "God's favor"?
AirForceHokie77 12/23/22 12:31 PM ET
I think so. 100%agree and honestly if you're Dabo or any Christian coach
HokiePokie95 12/23/22 01:03 PM ET
Great post. Appreciated**
AirForceHokie77 12/23/22 03:46 PM ET
Didn't Dabo say the team is not to be used as a platform?**
NokieHokie 12/22/22 05:08 PM ET
Not sure why you think he's using it as a platform
Vienna_Hokie 12/22/22 05:30 PM ET
Vienna, how can you miss the point here?
HokieJay 12/23/22 01:41 PM ET
He most certainly uses the team as a platform, so he's a hypocrite.**
NokieHokie 12/22/22 05:34 PM ET
you're entitled to your opinion, doubt Dabo is gonna lose any sleep
Vienna_Hokie 12/22/22 05:39 PM ET
I believe he believes it. I called him a hypocrite, not a fake...**

I believe Dabo is a man of God, but...

Dabo is nowhere the level of corruption and insanity as Kenneth Copeland
HokiePokie95 12/23/22 02:09 AM ET
Agreed. And I trust he is thankful for more important things if his team
HokiePokie95 12/22/22 06:26 PM ET

Vienna_Hokie 12/22/22 04:59 PM ET

Dabo is very religious. Part of who he is **
fordham 12/22/22 01:34 PM ET

jdkhokie 12/22/22 05:25 PM ET
That's not NIL money
RTFC 12/22/22 08:39 PM ET
You have proof of that I assume since you stated it as a fact**
Vienna_Hokie 12/22/22 05:40 PM ET

VT757to276 12/22/22 03:52 PM ET
