Wake head coach says Dabo Swinney has sent in musical requests for Saturday

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has eclectic musical tastes, but it’s obvious he is a big fan of the late Marvin Gaye. In other words, Let’s Get It On.

Truist Field at Wake Forest will be devoid of fans for Saturday’s matchup between Wake Forest and Clemson, and crowd noise and music will have to be piped in. Wake head coach Dave Clawson, in the manner of a good host, has inadvertently taken musical requests Swinney and Swinney has responded with a few of his favorites.

According to the Atlantic Coast Conference, home teams can use music or artificial crowd noise but not at a level that “prohibits a team from hearing its signals once the offensive team breaks its huddle or, if no huddle, when the center addresses the ball.
