10 years later...2 national championships, 5 consecutive ACC championships, 4 consecutive playoff appearances, the first team in poll era to go 15-0 with a freshman QB.
Dabo has not changed a bit same mindset. It's still working.
I remember when I first heard Dabo speak after his promotion. And I knew he was already part of the Clemson family. And that it was a big deal. Clemson doesn't thrive when it hires coaches outside the family, such as Ken Hatfield and Tommy Bowden, not to detract from their coaching abilities.
Dabo has shown a lot of integrity since that day. He has done everything he said he would do and it's pretty amazing to be a part of it even just as a student and a fan.
Go Tigers!
Best guy ever! Such a motivational person and coach. What a blessing it is to have Dabo. Go Tigers!
I'm proud to be a HUGE Clemson Tigers fan!! Coach Dabo Swinney is an inspiration to my life. He's an awesome Clemson Tigers football coach and I put God first in everything that I do. Go Tiger's!! 🐅🏈💪😍🏈💪

We all thought we got some weird named wide receiver coach to finish the season. Never knew we had the next legend.
"What kind of a name is Dabo anyway?"
That is the truth!
@@esnebta It was a nickname for him because when he was little, somebody called him Dat Boy. So it stuck and they called him Dabo. Southern kinda thing ya'll know?
@@ArkOmen1 Yessirrrr. I was quoting what I asked myself back in 2009.
Dabo is the man!
I still remember that press conference, and how po'd I was that this nobody was being made even the interim head coach. I was really mad when they made it permanent...I thought what are these idiots thinking, hiring this guy nobody has ever heard of, while the Gamecocks were getting a successful coach like Steve Spurrier. Turns out, I was the idiot...love Dabo!!!!!
You and me both. I was pissed off because this dude had literally zero experience. I couldnt be happier that i was wrong.
Think about it. Dabo Swinney faced an uphill battle from the day he was named interim coach. He had to rally a team who just lost their head coach. His focus was on the team and not himself. Once he was named permanent HC he had to start rebuilding that program and he had to do so without much of a reputation and he had to go up against Steve Spurrier in state who had a huge lead on him in terms of where the program was at S.C and was a legend. Then came 6-7 and everything and everyone seemed to be against him. He knew he was going to be fired but Terry Don Phillips stayed with him. Through it all he had a plan and rolled up his sleeves and went to work. Where some coaching hires didn’t work, he adapted and made hires that did. In my mind the two best hires were Brent Venables and Brandon Streeter (look at what Streeter did with Cole Stoudt in the bowl that year vs Oklahoma). His two biggest recruits early on were convincing CJ Spiller to stay and then recruiting Tajh Boyd. Then he worked at getting funds to build new facilities. He endured the Orange Bowl debacle and 0-5 verses SC and yet stayed the course and started to enjoy key bowl wins vs LSU, Ohio State, Oklahoma and then goes to the Natty twice and winning it in 2016. This shows what can happen when you make the most of every opportunity, have a plan, have patience and support and work hard. Dabo is the real deal and I’m certainly enjoying every moment of what we are enjoying. Go Tigers!
Incredible all that he has done.
Dabo has learned a lot about talking to the press since this vid.
This is about my tenth time to watch this video and I probably will watch it another ten times, but this is my first time to comment on it, what a great man from the get go I just love his honesty, enough said let's get back to the interview...Go Tigers
23:06 most inspirational moment I’ve ever heard
And the rest is history!!!
Who would’ve thought this man would become a legend in the sport
The 1 dislike is a Tommy Bowden fan.
Thank you dabo
A great day it was
Nd fan but love Dabo
Love our tiger family
And the rest is histoery. Thank you Dabo. Great QB, great leader, class individual.
I watched this interview and had no idea who he was. I had never heard anything about Dabo. I liked what he said and was sold on him from the start-He did try my patience by losing 5 in a row to usuc, but besides that what he has done at Clemson is amazing. Terry Don should have had his head examined for hiring Dabo-but he was the only one who knew what he was doing. Dabo was thrown to the fire as a mid season hire from a coaching change. Then he had to deal with the idiots in the media who insulted Clemson with that damn "c" word. And he's been to the mountain top twice now. He will never be able to change the face of college football at Alabama the way he will change the face of college football at Clemson.
Amen!
God is so good proud to be a child of God and a tiger fan
That shirt though! 🤔
Yeah not a fan.
Auburn
His wife brought it to him, so he can blame her!
That's Clemson man especially back in the day. Not shy about the colors bro! Heck ole Dabo was All In with that shirt!
Same Dabo 11/19. But he is way more smooth now. He does the shucks, gee wiz better than Andy Griffith.
E
This will never work out :)
a 29 year old Billy Napier. wow.
we got lucky
Anyone here after Dabo just signed a 10 year $115,000,000 contact in 2022?
well how about this... good choice?
SO SAD...SPORTS NOWADAYS ARE SUCH POLITICALLY CORRECT...AND CORRUPT. I DON'T WATCH NONE OF THIS CRAPOLA ANY MORE...ESPECIALLY PRO BROBALL AND FOOTBALL. SUCKS...BIG TIME. PERIOD.

Hater
Dumbass Just like tide fans saying once nick retired Dabo for Bama
