NC State’s Dave Doeren drew some headlines when he complained about Clemson having access to fancy facilities he lacks. Dabo Swinney responded at ACC Media Day, pointing out “buildings don’t win championships”. This isn’t the first time Doeren has externalized blame after a loss to Clemson (In Doeren’s defense look at his Twitter account, he may have had no idea about Clemson’s social media, he may not know his password).
While facilities have yet to take the field for a single snap there hasn’t been a team to win a national championship without palatial facilities in recent memory.
