The American Football Coaches Association announced Thursday that Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has been named honorary head coach of 2019 Allstate AFCA Good Works Team for his leadership in the Clemson community and commitment to giving back.
Swinney is the sixth member of the Clemson program all-time to earn an AFCA Good Works Team distinction, joining Robert Carswell (1999), Nick Eason (2000), Xavier Dye (2009), Deshaun Watson (2016) and Sean Pollard (2018).
Since 2009, the Swinney family and Dabo’s All In Team Foundation have given nearly $5 million back to communities and programs in the state.
