One of the first players that Dabo Swinney coached when he took the reins in 2009 is now sending his son to play for the legendary head coach.
On Friday afternoon, Clemson secured a commitment from 2027 defensive back Christian Chancellor, the son of former Tiger defensive back Chris Chancellor who played for Dabo in 2009.
In-state 2027 DB recruit commits to Clemson. PJ Chancellor is the son of former Tigers standout DB Chris Chancellor (2006-09). So, yes, Dabo Swinney is now in position to coach a father/son combo https://t.co/qlgX4APY1i

While Chancellor is yet to be ranked on 247Sports, he should see his stock rise in the coming months after committing to the Tigers.
