Today our focus will look at the ACC. While the conference has been turned upside down this season with many of the traditional powers struggling, the coaching hierarchy of potential LSU candidates is still clear.
At the top of that hierarch is Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney. Having taken over the Tigers in 2008, Swinney has made Clemson a national power with two national championships, seven ACC titles, and a cornucopia of All-Americans and high NFL Draft picks. He has gotten the Tigers where they are by being a dynamic recruiter who consistently puts Clemson near the top of the recruiting rankings.
