CHARLOTTE, NC – Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney hasn’t been shy when it comes to talking about the Tigers’ quarterback situation, but he took it a step further Thursday when he told ESPN that freshman Trevor Lawrence has to be better than Kelly Bryant in fall camp in order to earn the job.
Practice matters, according to Swinney, and if the two are even then Bryant will retain his hold on the starting spot.
“It’s so funny because I think there is an assumption that practice doesn’t matter. You just roll out there and say you are the guy,” Swinney said while sitting down with Tom Luginbill and Matt Schick.
