When he’s not receiving traffic tickets, Clemson University head football coach Dabo “Dat Boy” Swinney is a likable guy. He loves the fans – especially the children – and is always willing to pose for pictures.

CLEMSON QUARTERBACK PROVES US WRONG
This website has had a field day ragging on Clemson University quarterback Tajh Boyd. When Boyd was selected as a coaches’ first-team All-American last month, we questioned whether he deserved such an accolade – arguing he didn’t deserve to be ranked ahead of Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M.

USC RANKED NO. 6, CLEMSON TUMBLES FROM TOP TEN
