Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has always defended amateurism in college athletics and opposed play-for-pay.

Willie Anderson, who played in the NFL for 13 seasons from 1997-2008 and made five trips to the Pro Bowl, misquoted Swinney on Twitter Tuesday in attempt to call him out for his defense of amateurism.
“I’m not being messy. Cuz the man is a great coach. But has Dabo quit yet?,” Anderson asked. “Remember he said ‘he would quit if they allowed players to make money?
