Recruiting nowadays is not an easy task for head coaches -- it never was. Not only do you have to recruit like normal (but add in NIL and the transfer portal), but you also have to keep recruiting the players who have been committed to your school. Dabo Swinney has been doing just that with his 2026 Clemson football class.
Dabo has never been a fan of the new era of the transfer portal and having to constantly recruit his own guys, but it looks like he's doing a great job.
How do we know that?
