Embrace the Suck: Swinney encourages players to thrive in different season

Embrace the suck.

The 2020 football season is far from normal and everyone has to do things a little different, and that includes how the Clemson football team travels on the road. That includes the coaches and staff serving the players their meals at the team hotel, and traveling with face shields and masks.

It’s all different, but head coach Dabo Swinney has told his team to embrace the suck, even though they got off to an almost-normal start to the road trip.

“First of all, if you come in on Friday, and we have our routine, but now you come in on Friday and you have to have a virus test,” Swinney said.
