If the University of South Carolina were to call Tony Elliott about its recent head coaching vacancy, Clemson’s offensive coordinator would not pick up the phone.
It is not a slight at the Gamecocks, it is just the way Elliott handles every school who is looking for a new head coach during this time of the year.
“I don’t answer my phone to be honest with you. I am just transparent with people,” Elliott said Monday as the No. 4 Tigers get set to play Florida State this coming Saturday in Tallahassee, Fla.
