When someone meets one of those few people in life they have such high respect for, sometimes the meeting does not live up to the expectations.
However, that was not the case for Dabo Swinney when he first met Hall of Fame head coach Bobby Bowden.
“Some people can let you down when you maybe get to know them in a different way and I had this perception of him, and all I can say is that when I got to know him, kind of behind the curtain, if you will, he was even better than what I could imagine, as far as just his geniuses, kindness, just a smart man,” Clemson’s head coach said.
