Swinney says running backs room is in a good spot with four backs

Clemson exited last spring with seven running backs on the depth chart, entered the fall with six, and ended the season with just three after transfers and attrition paid a toll. The Tigers enter this spring with just three scholarship running backs and hope to enter fall camp with four, but head coach Dabo Swinney thinks the running backs room is in a great spot.

Chez Mellusi transferred out after the spring game last year, wound up at Wisconsin and rushed for 815 yards on 173 carries for the Badgers before his season ended with a knee injury.
