CLEMSON, S.C. -- It has been a rough few days for Clemson coach Dabo Swinney. First, his 19th-ranked Tigers lost to Louisville on Saturday night, then he was told he couldn't vote Tuesday at his polling place.
Swinney, whose given name is William, explained that the voting system had locked him out, saying a "William Swinney" had already voted last week. Swinney said it was his oldest son, Will, and not him.
"They done voted me out of the state," Swinney said. "We're 6-2 and 5-1 [in the Atlantic Coast Conference], man. They done shipped me off.
