Clemson coach Dabo Swinney makes a fool of himself by accusing FSU of being COVID cowards | Commentary

In the wake of Clemson coach Dabo Swinney accusing the Florida State Seminoles of being chickens, who would have blamed FSU for retaliating and accusing Swinney of being an even objectionable farm animal?

But the Seminoles, to their credit, decided to take the high road despite Swinney’s ridiculous remarks that have incredibly put FSU on the defensive for doing the right thing.

Swinney, in one of the most incredibly irresponsible comments a coach could make amid this COVID-19 crisis, essentially accused struggling Florida State of ducking his No. 4-ranked Clemson Tigers on Saturday. Why? Because FSU had the audacity to abruptly postpone the game Saturday morning when the Seminoles learned a COVID-positive Clemson player had traveled to the game with his team, potentially infecting the entire Clemson roster, which could have then potentially infected the entire Florida State roster.
