Earlier this summer, Dabo Swinney went to Italy for his summer vacation. It was the first time Clemson’s head coach had ever been to Europe.
At first, like most men, he went reluctantly, but like any good husband he gave in to his wife Kathleen and went on the trip. And, he was glad he did.
Swinney called the trip perhaps the best vacation of his life. A self-proclaimed history nut, Swinney loved seeing and learning about the history of Italy’s great cities, as well as seeing the ancient Colosseum in Rome and St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican City.
