Football brings Swinney, Clemson back to the White House

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Dabo Swinney loves to point out what makes football so special. Monday’s visit to the White House was another one of those opportunities.

President Donald Trump hosted Clemson’s football team Monday night to recognize the Tigers’ for their triumph over Alabama in last week’s College Football Playoff National Championship Game.

It was Clemson’s second trip to the White House in the last 19 months. President Trump also honored the 2016 National Champion Tigers in July of 2017.

“What a fun day. It is an honor to be a part of this tradition,” Swinney said to the President.
