Swinney’s Old-School Stand Against the New Era | LSU Tigers Football News

Clemson’s Dabo Swinney is calling out the state of college football as “embarrassing,” blaming the transfer portal and NIL deals for turning the game into a chaotic spectacle — while his team stays grounded in tradition. After a disappointing 7-6 season, Swinney’s old-school approach — “staying in our lane” — now feels like a liability in an era where coaches like Lane Kiffin are cashing in on new trends. With LSU looming as a 10-point favorite, Clemson has a chance to prove they’re still elite — even without the star-studded rosters of old. This weekend’s showdown could be the moment Swinney reclaims his legacy — or signals the start of a new chapter for Clemson.
