CLEMSON – Dabo Swinney’s message to his players and coaches is the same message he has for Clemson fans: you can’t lose respect for the blessing.
Swinney was asked about last season’s 10-3 record, the injuries, and everything the Tigers faced in a tumultuous season, and he said that last season’s trials act as a motivator heading into the 2022 season.
“I think they've got a healthy perspective. I think they have a unique perspective that really, honestly, no team I've had in a long time has had,” Swinney said. “Honestly, these guys, and it's not their fault, it's just they really haven't had any football adversity, if you will.
