Clemson's Dabo Swinney Sounds Off on Transfer Portal: 'The Problem Is Tampering'

The transfer portal has been one of the primary focuses of the college football world since the end of the regular season, and Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney is concerned with one issue in particular.

"The problem is tampering," he said during a Gator Bowl press conference with Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops, per David Hale of ESPN. "And we could fix it easily if they'd let football people fix it. But they usually don't listen to us."

Hale noted Clemson has eight players in the portal, while Kentucky has 13.

Both coaches pointed to specific position groups that will be quite thin for the Dec.
