CLEMSON, S.C. — A Clemson flag was flying in front of the house Dabo Swinney presumed belonged to one of his top recruits. Tre Lamar’s family had just moved a few weeks earlier, so this was Swinney’s first trip to the new house, and when he saw the Tigers logo flowing in the breeze, he assumed he’d found the right place.
Turns out, however, Lamar lived next door. The proximity to another Clemson fan was just a coincidence, but as Swinney wrapped up his visit with the star linebacker, the Tigers supporters next door were still on his mind.
