Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney believes the new landscape in college football surrounding the transfer portal and NIL has created an environment that allows for too much tampering.
Change is inevitable and the sport of college football has seen its fair share in recent years.
With the advent of the transfer portal, the new rules surrounding the free one-time transfer, along with the implementation of NIL, college football players are more empowered than they have ever been.
However, there have also been what Dabo Swinney has described as unintended consequences and in a recent interview with 247 Sports Carl Reed, the Clemson head coach said one of the biggest issues of late has been the tampering.
“The tampering that we have in college football, it is sad,” Swinney said. “And you know, that’s where we are, that’s the world we’re living in.”
Swinney has never shied away from sharing his opinions on the current landscape surrounding the sport, but at the same time, some of those opinions have been either misinterpreted or misrepresented.
