The Clemson Tigers football team battled for the national championship in 1981. It would be another 34 years before they got another chance to reclaim the title. The renaissance began with the hiring of a little-known assistant named Dabo Swinney. From his early life, Swinney was no stranger to adversity, and he wanted to help his players grow both on and off the field. By January of 2016, the coach had the undefeated Clemson Tigers ranked number one in the nation and playing for their first national title in 34 years. Clemson Tough: Guts and Glory under Dabo Swinney relays the intimate details of Swinney’s life, his impact on Tiger Town and his mission to create an elite program on and off the field.
