Dabo Swinney is an incredible coach with contagious enthusiasm but it''s his character that separates him from so many other great college football coaches. Proud to be a Tiger!

Who thought would would be sitting where we are

8 years later? Not me. I sure as heck didn't see it coming. I remained positive though.
I started to really believe after the sweep of 3 ranked teams (Auburn, FSU and VT) in 2011 and the ACC championship. Then, once we hired Brent Venables, I knew we were about to turn the corner.

This video is a great reminder of just how much Dabo Swinney has accomplished at Clemson. At the 23:24 mark Dabo states:
"I believe with all my heart that we can achieve all of our goals as one Clemson....as one Clemson. My goals will be simple; to go recruit the very best student athletes that we can recruit, graduate them, and win championships."
Congratulations Dabo - you have met those goals and have one more big one in front of you - win that National Championship!

I listened to the press conference when he was named intrim head coach. I knew then we had something special. I was all in the minute you asked for it, and you better believe I will be in my seat noon on Saturday just as you have asked. Thanks Dabo for making Clemson football fun again and amplifying everything that is great about Clemson.

I always liked Dabo when he was the wr coach. He had so much passion even then. I was a litlle uneasy about the hc position but hoped for the best. He honetly has blown me away. I wouldnt trade him for anyone. I seriously believe he is building a dynasty like the U in the 80s, and I am enjoying the ride.
