Dabo thankful to have another Swinney joining the Clemson program

Dabo Swinney is known for having a family friendly atmosphere when it comes to Clemson’s coaching staff.

Tigers coaches regularly bring their spouses and kids to practices or events.

It is safe to say that there will be plenty of coaches’ kids around Clemson’s program in 2018 because three members of Clemson’s recruiting class are sons of staff members.

The Tigers announced the additions of preferred walk-ons Ben Batson and Drew Swinney on Signing Day. Batson, who played quarterback at Dorman, is the son of Clemson strength and conditioning coach Joey Batson. Ben’s brother Michael is a punter on the team.
