Clemson football head coach Dabo Swinney changed not just the culture of the football program but also the Clemson community.

When Coach Swinney first took over as head coach of Clemson football, he wanted every to be “all-in” and by everyone, he meant fans, students, professors, staff, the community, and alumni. He wanted to create the family atmosphere he knew would set Clemson apart from other programs.
