In case anyone was wondering what Van Smith’s up to these days. Not a lot
Van Smith questioning Dabo (SIAP)
- Thread starter marshmk
- Start date
It’s probably because Van is failing at life and frustrated. Most malcontents and losers throw rocks at the winners in life. It’s been going on since the days of Adam and Eve. There’s even political organizations that support these tactics. Communism, socialism and liberalism
In reality, it is. With that said, the perception will be used as ammo like last time and will influence prospects. I hate it as much as anyone, but cancel culture is alive and thriving.
Smith looking for attention
Crazy, all these guys or girls whining need to look in the mirror.
I go to sleep every night knowing i have friends of different races and sleep fine. I’m assuming guys like this do not?

Exactly, thanks for trying to give this bs legs my posting it on here
Unless you’re a democrat. Just one example out of hundreds, is the Governor of Virginia and the Canadian prime minister wearing black face. There were calls for resignation but they ignored it.
Jordan Hancock says hello!
Damn I didn’t say the sky was falling. I said that opposing coaches would use this as ammo, even if this should be a nothing burger.
Gonna be hard when Kirby and Saban are in the same type photos with this guy
How do these guys graduate from Clemson and can’t form a coherent sentence? What a loser
The move here for Dabo is to discontinue any association with that racist from the video. Persona non grata
A real player would have taken that INT back for 6 in the Fiesta Bowl....

The ignorance that social media has created astounds me. People will see Van’s post and believe it 100% without any context or doing any further research. If the racist claims against Dabo and Clemson are true, why doesn’t Van or others come forward with actual facts and details of these supposed racist actions?
What an idiot. The poor and uneducated are so easy to be manipulated.
You should go post those pictures in that Twitter feed before it used only against coach.
It seems like there are an awful lot of people that just want to watch the world burn now days!
I dont think people understand that Clemson can blacklist the guy without publicly disclosing it on social media.
Of course they pick the one picture with Dabo as the one for the article
Shocking I tell you. Who wants to bet the next move is a bunch of appearances on the no-name haters podcast circuit?
I remember a lot of Gamecocks getting photos with Dabo during the 5 streak. Does that mean they are all Dabo's friends?
People will believe anything they see on social media. It's a sad world we live in these days where facts actually don't matter. This guy has never "worked" for Clemson or Dabo. He was a trainer for recruits
100% true.
If it were me repping closely in this business like Dabo has to, simple PR:
“It’s been brought to my attention a video created by Mark Taylor displaying deplorable and unacceptable commentary. We have worked with Mark in the past around the development of a few high school student athletes here at Clemson. None of that was ever on display for the handful of interactions we’ve had together. It’s nothing we will tolerate here or anywhere for that matter and we’ll be moving on from our working relationship.”
(Put it behind you ASAP. Took 2 minutes.)
This is what I've searched the thread trying to figure out.
I’d call that guy out on Twitter but he blocked me the last time he went on a rant about Dabo and I called him out.
Van Smith is throwing a lot of shade toward Danny Pearman for a guy who was recruited to Clemson by……..Danny Pearman. Smith leaving school early didn’t make a lot of sense to me at the time….he certainly seems to not be a fan these days. And LOL at the “no players like us anymore” narrative.
10 years that would work. Now, no matter what you say, it just opens a bigger can of worms. I just think you don't address it at all anymore.
Like us all, Dabo has his faults, perhaps pride and stubbornness, but racism is the farthest description of him. Totally unfair
Probably because there was a picture floating around again of Kirby in confederate outfit
Maybe he means semi-literate (like he obviously is)?
Is it bad that I honestly do not remember him?
Seriously - what position did he play?
