Any news on Special Teams coaching changes?

I would have thought Dabo would have addressed this by now.

I would just love to hear Dabo talk about the plan. Tell us how this one area will be fixed for 2016.

What kind of changes are you anticipating?

NCAA rules specify how many coaches are allowed in a football program (one head coach, nine assistant coaches and two graduate assistant coaches).
Clemson already has a full compliment of coaches so barring someone getting fired or reassigned within the program, Dabo will not be hiring a special teams coach.

I was saying after the championship we should just make one of those guys a permanent special teams dude....like make him live and breathe it. I'm sure some of these former players that help out could manage it. Don't know if its allowed by the NCAA though. He!! I'd do it for free as an intern if we're putting names in the hat.

Streeter is the lowest on the totem pole. So maybe Dabo should appoint him to work with special team a few time a week. Something has to be done, our special teams looked last season like it was made up of by who ever wanted to run out on the field to fill in as a special teams unit that really sucked!!!

you do realize each coach has their own special team that they work with and have been ever since the beginning of time.

We just need to put more 4 stars on the field instead of walk-ons and two stars. Talking to a couple of the players and it seems like kicking out of the end zone is not what our coaches like to do, they feel they are giving up extra yards. If we are not going to kick it out of the end zone then we are going to have to put better talent out on the field. The good thing is the onside kick mistake in the natty I bet will not happen to a CU team coached by Dabo ever again. It made our coaching staff look bad so I am sure it will be corrected.

The 2015 team was a great one...

We definitely deserved our ranking and fully earned our place in the national championship. That said, special teams lost us that championship. So yeah, Dabo needs to do something about the way he's approaching special teams. If than means putting starters out there and making it more of a priority in the mix of their position on the depth chart, so be it. We outplayed bama. We should have been national champs. No good reason why we should have lost that game.
Dabo has shown great aptitude in recognizing and addressing such issues from season to season. I'll be surprised if we don't see major improvements to kick returns and kick coverage in 2016.

Not according to the experts.
Dabo is a dumba$$
How did we manage to win 14 games with so many coaches on tnet?
A few of them actually finished high school. I think

We beat Bama everywhere except ST
This has to be addressed! We should demand answers! This is more important than every offseason topic being discussed
