It would cost quite a pretty penny for the Clemson Tigers to part ways with head coach Dabo Swinney.

Clemson lost its season opener 34-3 to the Georgia Bulldogs and started 2024 off on the wrong foot. One notable detail is that Swinney's current contract contains a buyout clause worth $60 million in both 2024 and 2025 and $57 million in 2026, per Michael Ginnitti of Spotrac.

Swinney signed a 10-year, $115 million contract extension with Clemson in 2022 that is set to run through the 2031 season.
