Lincoln Riley says brother Garrett is the perfect fit for Clemson

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney wants to make sure that anyone he lets inside his program, whether it’s a player or a coach, is the right fit for the culture he has created. Lincoln Riley thinks his brother, new Clemson offensive coordinator Garrett Riley, is the perfect fit.

Swinney parted ways with offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Brandon Streeter a few weeks ago, one of the rare times that Swinney has parted ways with a longtime and loyal assistant. He hired Garrett Riley away from TCU, and Garrett’s older brother Lincoln, the head coach at USC, thinks his little brother is the right fit for what Swinney wants.
