Clemson HC Dabo Swinney Pushes Back on Idea of Adding External General Manager
With the newly announced 24-team College Football Playoff, the sport is evolving faster than ever, and programs, Clemson included, have to keep pace.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, head coach Dabo Swinney explained that the front office and personnel side will need to change with the sport, suggesting a more centralized structure than Clemson's current one, but not one that includes an external general manager running the roster.
"No, I'm going to make the roster decisions as the head coach," he said. "I mean, I don't make them all by myself; we collectively [do]. We're not going to hire somebody to come in and say, 'This is your roster.'"
