Clemson's Dabo Swinney, now the 2nd winningest active coach, deflects credit and details how "failure and pain" shaped his career.
With Brian Kelly's departure from LSU, Dabo Swinney is now the second-winningest active coach in major college football. His reaction to the milestone? A powerful reflection on faith, failure, and a moment he was sure his Clemson career was over before it ever truly began.
'It's God's Plan'
When asked about his new status behind only Kirk Ferentz, Swinney immediately deflected any personal praise, attributing his longevity to a higher power and the people around him.
