Though Dabo Swinney has lost some talented players to the transfer portal such as former quarterback Kelly Bryant, running back Tavien Feaster and linebacker Shaq Smith, he has yet to use it himself.
When asked if he would use the transfer portal if he was in a sticky situation like he was four years ago when he recruited Isaiah Simmons and K’Von Wallace in the late stages of the recruiting process, Clemson’s head coach admitted he probably would not.
“To me, I mean, like I say, we haven’t recruited a transfer portal (player). There is not anything wrong with that, it just hasn’t been what we needed to do,” Swinney said.
