There is no doubt Chad Morris is excited about his first season as a head coach. The former Clemson offensive coordinator will make his head coaching debut when his SMU Mustangs host fourth-ranked Baylor on Sept. 4 in Dallas.
But as excited as Morris is to be a new head coach in college football, part of him still lies in Clemson where he understands the Tigers are on the cusp of something special in Dabo Swinney’s seventh season.
With the return of Deshaun Watson at quarterback, plus talented offensive weapons like wide receivers Artavis Scott and Mike Williams sprinkled all around him, the Tigers are expected to put up record breaking numbers in 2015.
