You can make an argument, and a darn good one, that Dabo Swinney is already Clemson’s best head coach.
Granted Frank Howard, Jess Neely and Danny Ford are all in the College Football Hall of Fame, but in his 10 years as the Tigers’ head man, Swinney is already the second winningest head coach in school history. He has already won one national championship, played for another and has four ACC Championships under his belt.
However, each of the men listed above, including Swinney, did so much for the Clemson football program over the years that it is hard to say one guy is better than the other.
