Maybe he knows if his dad is coming back to Clemson 🙂. I guess he needs to be fired first though…

Swinney says VT and Louisville are similar in many ways.
Additionally, he said it is one of the most experienced groups in the country.

Swinney says it is disappointing that Clemson no longer controls their destiny, but that they control their response throughout the week.

Dabo Swinney was asked about portal depth, especially looking at DE.
"We love our roster."
He adds he has no regrets about how this group was constructed.

Swinney calls Saturday's offensive performance a "weird deal" rushing for 200 and throwing for 200 and still losing.
Second time that's happened in two years.

Swinney says that VT's red zone defense can "light you up."
He took the time to add VT's record does not reflect how good this team is.

Swinney wasn't able to vote this morning, and jokingly goes
"Man, we are 6-2 and 5-1 in the league, and they voted me out of the state!"

Dabo Swinney apparently quoted Abraham Lincoln this week.
"Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe"
This is according to Mafah.

Venables believes Woodaz is "wired differently" and that he could be a first day LB in the NFL Draft.

Woodaz is a stud and Venables a friend, but Woodaz won't be picked any where near the 1st round making tackles 8 yards over the line of scrimmage.

Venables says you can't be a championship defense and have the plays roll out the way they did Saturday night.

Will Tiger coaches run Mafah 20 times in the 2nd half to pad rushing stats?
