Dabo Swinney is a coach who’s never been shy to speak his mind, and the Clemson football coach lived up to that reputation during Saturday’s game against visiting No. 4 Florida State by openly criticizing his own defensive coordinator at halftime.
Swinney’s comments came after Clemson’s defense, led by second-year DC Wes Goodwin, surrendered a 2-yard touchdown run to Seminoles quarterback Jordan Travis to cap a five-play, 75-yard drive to end the first half.
With the Tigers’ lead trimmed to 17-14 at intermission, a clearly irritated Swinney ripped apart his defense’s performance during FSU’s two-minute drill.
