Clemson Roundup: Dabo Swinney, Women’s Soccer and All-American game
By John Chancey
Dabo Swinney is turning up the physicality in Clemson Football practice
Clemson Football has been in fall camp for about a week, and as mentioned on Rubbing The Rock, the tone around the program has changed to one of confidence.
The tone in the practices has apparently begun to focus on toughness and physicality, which is a welcome sight.
Head coach Dabo Swinney isn’t just leaving it up to the players to increase the physical nature of the practice.
He has apparently jumped in himself to create some havoc for the tight ends and receivers during contested catches.
When your head coach reminds you he’s the head coach.

Coach Swinney spared none of the TE’s from his hands on coaching during practice this morning.
Gotta love it! 🧡💜@ClemsonFB pic.twitter.com/B4rFSveC3s
Yeah, I might have to put on the orange colored glasses soon.
Nick Eason was feeling it too.
Felt good to wear the pads today. I still thirst for that physical contact. And yes I do believe I can still play a few snaps! 🐅🐅👊🏽 pic.twitter.com/T2Pw92Ed2f
