Dabo Swinney has been playing and coaching football for a long time, the majority of his life in fact. The first week of a new season is always special for the Clemson coach just because there is so much to do, and the excitement of the first game is upon them.
However, with COVID-19, and all the things that have gone on around the world this year, never has Swinney been this excited for a first game than he is for Saturday’s game at Wake Forest.
“Probably as excited about this opening week as my very first one as a head coach,” he said.
