MOO U News: Dabo being considered for Arkansas job in his mind

THIS IS A "FAKE" STORY - DO NOT TAKE IT TOO SERIOUS!

AUTHOR: RUSTY CRANKSHAFT --

Having lost four of his last six games including the worst bowl defeat in college football history, Clemson crazy-man in chief Dabo Swinney has convinced himself that Arkansas is after him to coach the Razorbacks.  The new fantasy is the latest of many entertaining delusions from the always entertaining coach.  Long-time Cockabooster contributor Monty Bennett, aka “Tiger Paw Pete,” remembers them all.

“Yeah old Dabo thought he was Alabama’s 2nd choice behind Saban, that the Vatican wanted him for Pope, CBS was looking at him to replace Bob Barker on the Price is Right and the Food Network was considering him to be the next Paula Deen.  He thinks Apple wanted him to be the next Steve Jobs and recently he had himself convinced that the S. C. Senate tried to make him Lt. Governor after Ken Ard resigned.  You never know what goofy nonsense we’ll get from Dat Boy.” 

Perhaps the strangest example of Swinney pretending someone wants him is the 2012 Republican Presidential Primary sweepstakes.  Swinney was in tears as he announced he was pulling out of a race in which he never was involved.  “I appreciate so much being offered the GOP nomination and I am flattered, but now is just not the right time for me to do this.” 

Clemson Athletic Director Terry Don Hubba Bubba Dee Ding Billy Joe Phillips says incidents like these don’t bother folks at Clemson.  “It’s just the fleas that come with the dog.  He isn’t hurting anyone by pretending these things.”
