Swinney 'hates' having to play Kendrick in red and black

After playing the last three seasons at Clemson, cornerback Derion Kendrick will be on the opposite side of the field when the Tigers face Georgia in the two teams’ season opener Sept. 4 in Charlotte.

Kendrick will be wearing the red and black after transferring to UGA on June 1. Kenrick was dismissed from the Clemson team on Feb. 28 after failing to properly communicate with the Clemson coaching staff on why he was missing classes and practice.

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney joined former UGA coach Jim Donnan for a UGASports.com interview recently and was asked to give his thoughts on Kendrick, a two-year starter for the Tigers, suiting up for the Bulldogs now.
