Clemson will play one of its most difficult schedules in history in 2011, according the slate of games announced by the Atlantic Coast Conference on Feb. 14. Ten of Clemson’s 11 FBS opponents went to bowl games last year, including six who won at least nine games in 2010. Additionally, Wofford, Clemson’s FBS opponent, was 10-3 and reached the second round of the NCAA playoffs.

Clemson’s three FBS non-conference opponents had a combined 31-10 record last year, a .756 winning percentage. That list includes defending National Champion Auburn, who comes to Clemson on September 17. Troy (8-5) and South Carolina (9-5) also had outstanding seasons in 2010.

Overall, Clemson’s 12 opponents in 2011 had a 104-55 record last year, a .654 winning percentage.

Each of Clemson’s first five opponents won at least eight games, including four in a row who won at least 10 games.

Clemson has a stretch of consecutive games against Auburn (14-0), Florida State (10-4) and Virginia Tech (11-3) between September 24 and October 1 that will be one of the most challenging stretches in school history. All three of those teams played for their respective conference championships last year. Clemson plays all four schools who played in the ACC and SEC championship games last year.

Clemson has a 2011 schedule that is frontloaded with home games. The Tigers first four games will be at home, the first time that has happened since 1979 and just the third time in school history. The 1920 Tigers played their first five games at home.

Clemson plays six of its first eight games at home and, for the first time since 1989, Clemson will play just one home game after October 22.

The Tigers will open the season September 3 against Troy, the first meeting on the gridiron between the two schools. Troy finished with an 8-5 record last year and ranked 11th in the nation in passing offense, 17th in total offense and fifth in quarterback sacks.

Clemson’s second game will be played on September 10 when Wofford from nearby Spartanburg, SC comes to Clemson. It will be the first meeting between the Tigers and the Terriers since 2001 and just the second meeting since 1981.

Wofford had a 10-3 season in 2010 when they led the all FCS schools in rushing yards per game.

Defending National Champion Auburn comes to Clemson on September 17. The Auburn Tigers had a 14-0 record last year when they defeated Oregon for the National title. Clemson and Auburn went to overtime last year before Auburn gained a 27-24 victory. Clemson was the only team to take Auburn to overtime last year. It will be Auburn’s first trip to Clemson since 1970.

Auburn’s appearance will mark the first time the defending national champion has come to Clemson since 1991 when Georgia Tech played at Clemson after having won the title according to the Coach’s poll in 1990. The only other year an opponent came to Clemson as the defending national champion was 1981 when Georgia played

OUTLOOK

A new offensive approach, combined with the traditional success of the Clemson defense will be keys to Clemson’s path to ACC prominence in 2011.

Tiger Head Coach Dabo Swinney selected Chad Morris as his new offensive coordinator in January and he brings with him a list of accomplishments that helped Tulsa to a 10-3 record in 2010. Combined with the expertise of veteran defensive coordinator Kevin Steele, who led Clemson to a top 20 national ranking in scoring defense and total defense last year, the Tigers are hoping to challenge for the ACC Atlantic Division Crown they captured in 2009.

Overall, Clemson returns 47 lettermen from the 2010 team that was bowl eligible, the 12th straight year of postseason eligibility for the Clemson program. Twenty-one of the returning lettermen are on offense, including eight starters, while 22 returning lettermen are on defense, including five starters. Both the starting punter and placekicker return as well.

Clemson must replace some fine players on both sides of the ball. The most celebrated of the departures is defensive end Da’Quan Bowers, who led the nation in sacks in 2010 as a junior with 15.5. Most feel Bowers will be a top ten pick in the NFL draft and he was the recipient of the Bronko Nagurski Awrd as the top defensive player in college football as selected by the Football Writers Association.

The defense also must replace two-time All-American DeAndre McDaniel. The Clemson graduate finished his career with 15 interceptions, tied for second in school history, 18.5 tackles for loss and 20 passes broken up. He is the only player in Clemson history with at least 15 interceptions and 15 tackles for loss. The two-time first-team All-ACC safety, was a threeyear starter patrolling the Clemson secondary.

Reliable team leader Marcus Gilchrist will be a big loss in the secondary, and as a return man, while Jarvis Jenkins was a three-year starter on the defensive line who had 53 tackles and nine tackles for loss last year.

Brandon Maye, who led Clemson in tackles per game in ACC play last year and was a three-year starter, also graduated.

On offense, Clemson must replace quarterback Kyle Parker, who finished his career with 32 touchdown passes and over 4,700 yards in just two years as the starting quarterback. He was a first-round draft choice of the Colorado Rockies in June of 2010 and is now starting his professional baseball career.

The Tigers also must replace leading rusher Jamie Harper, who opted for the NFL after his junior season. Harper had a 1,000-yard season in 2010 in terms of yards from scrimmage (760 rushing and 328 receiving) and scored 10 touchdowns. First-team All-ACC offensive tackle Chris Hairston also must be placed.

Offense (21 returning lettermen, 8 returning starters)

Morris was the offensive coordinator at Tulsa in 2010 and that offense was a big reason Tulsa improved from a 5-7 record in 2009 to 10-3 last year. The Golden Hurricanes ranked 13th in the nation in passing offense with 288.7 yards per game, and 15th in rushing offense with 216.9 yards

per game. Their 505.6 total offense yards per game ranked fifth best in the nation. Tulsa was the only school in the nation to rank in the top 15 in both rushing offense and passing offense.

What was especially impressive was the improvement Tulsa made compared to the 2009 season, the year before Morris arrived. Tulsa improved from 58th in the nation in rushing to 15th, and from 32nd in passing to 13th. Swinney hopes the Tigers can make a similar improvement on offense in 2011.

“Coach Morris has a plan and we are anxious to see him install it,” said Swinney, who is in his third full season at Clemson. “It will be an offense that changes pace. Sometime it will be very quick and sometime we will slow it down. Sometime we will huddle and sometime it will be no-huddle.

That will be a function of whom we are playing.

“We should be an offense that runs more plays and that should lead to more points. It is an offense that has balance and will be physical. We will take advantage of our playmakers.”

The heir apparent at quarterback is red-shirt sophomore Tajh Boyd.

The native of Virginia played in seven games last year as Parker’s backup and completed 33-63 passes for 329 yards and four touchdowns. Two of those scores came in the final two minutes of the Meineke Car Care Bowl against South Florida.

“Tajh has an outstanding work ethic, and is respected by his teammates because of that work ethic,” said Swinney. “This will be an important spring and preseason camp for him, but he will do well in this system.”

A true freshman will likely be the backup quarterback. Cole Stoudt, son of former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Cliff Stoudt, and Tony McNeal, a fine all-around quarterback from Chester, SC, enrolled in school in January and will go through spring practice.

Through seven games last year Andre Ellington ranked 10th in the nation in scoring with 12 touchdowns and was 30th in rushing yards per game with 91.7. He had four 100-yard rushing games in the first seven contests, including 22-140 against eventual National Champion Auburn. He had just gained 166 yards rushing in 20 carries and scored three touchdowns in a victory over Georgia Tech, then he suffered a toe injury at Boston College that virtually ended his season.

“Andre Ellington’s return is as important as any aspect of our football team,” said Swinney. “ He is an outstanding back in all phases of the game.

We definitely missed him the second half of last year.

“We won’t look the same in April as we will in the fall because Ellington won’t be out there and some of our incoming freshmen who will have an impact will not be with us yet. But, it will be an opportunity for some young skill position players to gain some experience this spring.”

Roderick McDowell also returns at running back. In seven games last year he had 161 yards, a 5.0 average and scored a touchdown. Red-shirts D.J. Howard and Demont Buice will get plenty of work as Ellington sits out Spring practice.

The top returning receiver is sophomore DeAndre Hopkins, who had 52 catches for 637 yards and four touchdowns in 2010. His nine receptions

S E A S O N O U T LOOK in the Meineke Car Care bowl established a Clemson record for a bowl game.

He finished the year with three 100-yard games in his last four contests.

Jaron Brown is another outstanding young receiver for the Tigers. The red-shirt junior, who was a first-team Academic All-ACC selection in 2010, had 32 receptions for 405 yards and three scores. He ranked fourth on the team in receptions, but was second in reception yardage.

Bryce McNeal is another veteran receiver. The native of Minnesota had 19 receptions for 187 yards last year when he started three games and played in 12. Marquan Jones is a senior who had 21 catches for 184 yards, including six receptions in the victory over a top 25 NC State team.

The tight end/H back position also has some outstanding returning talent. Dwayne Allen was a second-team All-ACC player last year when he had 33 receptions for 373 yards and a touchdown, the most receptions for a Clemson sophomore tight end. Also a solid blocker, the junior was a midseason semifinalist for the John Mackey Award last year.

Brandon Ford is a converted wide receiver who had a strong finish to the 2010 season. The native of Wando, SC had 10 catches for 78 yards and two touchdowns. Both touchdown catches came in the Meineke Car Care Bowl against South Florida, and he became the first Clemson player to catch two scoring passes in a bowl game. Sam Cooper is a red-shirt freshman who will also get some playing time in 2011.

Chad Diehl is a red-shirt senior who is a unique player. He has the ability to play at the next level because of his abilities as a blocker in all sorts of formations. He is a veteran of 43 games, including 17 starts in his career and will break the Clemson record for games played this year as long as he stays healthy.

The Tigers return four starters in the offense line for new line coach Robbie Caldwell, who takes over for longtime assistant Brad Scott, who retired from coaching in February. Caldwell, who was the head coach at Vanderbilt in 2010, will welcome back starters Landon Walker (OT), Antoine McClain (OG), Dalton Freeman (C) and David Smith (OT), and top reserve Mason Cloy (OG), who has 19 career starts and 38 career games played.

“There will be some adjustment at the beginning for the offensive line in this offense,” said Swinney, “but not as much as some people may think.

The biggest adjustment will be playing more snaps because of the change in pace.

“Our biggest task this spring on the offensive line will be to find a fifth starter. We have a lot of options and we will go through spring practice and

give a lot of young players a chance. We have some versatility in the offensive line so there are a number of ways we could go.”

Walker played 805 snaps last year and started all 13 games, giving him 35 career starts entering his senior season. He knows what it takes to be successful because over his career he has gone against top NFL draft choices Ndamukong Suh of Nebraska, Jerry Hughes of TCU and Derrick Morgan of Georgia Tech, not to mention competing against former teammate Da’Quan Bowers every day in practice.

Freeman is a red-shirt junior who will be in his third year as a starter at center. A multi-year academic All-ACC selection, Freeman has made 22 starts (all consecutive entering 2011) in 26 games over the last two years.

Freeman had 58 knockdown blocks last year in 811 plays, and averaged 80.6 percent in terms of his film grade, third best on the team.

McClain is also in his third year as a starter and fourth year as a key member of the offensive line. He has played over 1,500 career snaps in 40 games, 27 as a starter. He has started every game over the last two seasons.

A third-team All-ACC selection by Phil Steele in 2010, McClain had a team best 69 knockdown blocks, including a team best 14 at Auburn.

Smith is a returning starter at guard for 2011, but he has also played tackle in his career. The native of nearby Greenville, SC had a solid junior year despite missing some time with injuries. He started 11 of the 13 games and had 30 knockdown blocks in over 500 plays.

There are many options for the fifth starter in Swinney’s offensive line.

One would be Cloy, a veteran red-shirt senior who has played both guard and center over his career. He played in 12 games last year, two as a starter and had 31 knockdown blocks for the season and has 136 for his career.

He is a two-time first-team Academic All-ACC selection.

Philip Price, an original walk-on who has earned a scholarship, could be the fifth starter as a left tackle. He has played in 29 games over his career and the senior is a very athletic player. For example, he has a 10-1 broad jump, fourth on the entire team. Brandon Thomas and Matt Sanders are two other junior offensive linemen who could move into a starting role this year.

Defense (22 returning lettermen, 5 returning starters)

Clemson had a strong season on defense in 2010. The Tigers were fifth in the nation in fewest rushing touchdowns allowed, ninth in tackles for loss, 13th in scoring defense, 19th in total defense and 22nd in pass

Clemson returns four starters from the offensive line, including the center, the right side of the line, and the left guard. Three tight ends who saw significant action are also back.

SEASO N O U T L O O K defense. While technically, only five starters return from that unit, defensive coordinator Kevin Steele does have some talented reserves who logged a lot of playing time and they are ready to assume starting roles.

“We have lost some outstanding players, there is no doubt, three of whom were first-team All-ACC players (Bowers, Jenkins and McDaniel), but we are in the third year of this system under Coach Steele and we have some returning backups who played a lot,” said Swinney.

Clemson had one of the top defensive lines in the nation last year, and that could be the case in 2011, even with the departure of Jenkins and Bowers to the NFL.

Andre Branch and Brandon Thompson give the Tigers one of the top, experienced defensive end/tackle combinations in the country. Branch has played in 34 games over the last three years and has 16.5 career tackles for loss, including seven sacks. He had 55 tackles overall in 2010 to rank seventh on the team.

Thompson has been a stalwart in the middle of Clemson’s defensive line for the last three years and enters his senior year with 131 career tackles, including 14.5 behind the line of scrimmage. He also finished strong, as 43 of his 56 tackles came in the last seven games of the season.

There are strong replacements on the front four to replace Jenkins and Bowers. Mallicah Goodman and Kourtnei Brown are two experienced defensive ends, while Rennie Moore is a veteran defensive tackle. Goodman had 21 tackles in 13 games last year, including nine in the win over Georgia Tech when he got a starting role. His pursuit of the quarterback on the option was a big reason the Yellow Jackets scored just one touchdown against the Tigers.

Moore is a veteran of 32 games, just one as a starter, but he had 26 tackles in 13 games in 2010. He was one of the more productive defensive players off the bench as his seven tackles for loss with attest. Red-shirt junior college transfer Josh Watson looks to be a promising addition to the defensive line as well.

Technically, Clemson has just one starter returning at the linebacker position. Corico Hawkins had 71 tackles in 2010, the most among returning Tigers. Quandon Christian started seven of the 13 games at an outside linebacker position and is not considered a returning starter because he was 12th on the team in starts. But, the Freshman All-ACC player according to Rivals.com had a solid year with 24 tackles, including 22 first hits.

The third linebacker position will feature returning veterans Daniel Andrews, Justin Parker, Spencer Shuey, and Tig Willard among the returning lettermen, while there are some red-shirt freshman candidates, including the athletic Victor Beasley.

“We lost some veteran players in the secondary in DeAndre McDaniel, Marcus Gilchrist and Byron Maxwell, all players who could play professionally next year. But, Xavier Brewer started 10 games and played well for us, as did Coty Sensabaugh. And, I like what I have seen in the players we red-shirted last year.”

Brewer finished the season with 10 passes broken up, second best on the team. He also had a 61-yard interception return for a touchdown against Maryland that broke the game open, and had nine tackles and an interception against Auburn. Sensabaugh started three games and had 28 tackles and two passes broken up. He has had exactly one interception in each of his three years with the program.

The safety position features returning starter Rashard Hall, a two-time Academic All-ACC selection who is on the verge of becoming an All-ACC player on the field. In two years he has eight interceptions and five passes broken up in 27 games. He already has nine career takeaways.

Jonathan Meeks is another returning lettermen who should move into a starting position. The native of Rock Hill, SC had 28 tackles last year in 13 games, one as a starter. He had six tackles and two passes broken up in his top performance against Georgia Tech. Darius Robinson and Martin Jenkins are two more returning lettermen who lettered as freshman defensive backs, and redshirt freshman Bashaud Breeland will also be a factor in the secondary

Clemson has both of its starting kickers returning, but will have to find a replacement for Marcus Gilchrist in the kick return area. Gilchrist ranked in the top four in the ACC in punt returns (10.1) and kickoff returns (23.7) in a solid senior year handling both duties.

Dawson Zimmerman was the MVP of Clemson’s special teams last year as the punter. He averaged 42.7 yards a punt, but an outstanding 40.6 in terms of net punting. The rising senior, who is a near 4.0 student as an English major, was one of 10 semfinalists for the Ray Guy Award as a junior. He had 19 punts inside the 20 and nine punts of 50 yards or more, including two boots over 76 yards, the only player in Clemson history to accomplish that.

Chandler Catanzaro was Clemson’s starting placekicker for most of 2010 and he had 14 field goals in 22 attempts. The 14 field goals, the most by a Clemson freshman since 1991, included 6-9 from the 40-49.

RASHARD HALL anchors the Tiger defense from the safety position. The ballhawk has made 19 starts in 27 career games and has eight interceptions and 128 tackles.

Clemson University’s athletic department is continuing its plan to improve facilities by announcing a goal to invest $50 million over the next five years in capital projects. The master plan includes enhancements to facilities for football, baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis and golf.

The projects, many of which are pending board of trustee and state approval, will be funded through private gifts and generated athletics revenues. A committee led by Ed and Jane Duckworth of Atlanta will study the plan and implement a funding strategy. All gifts in support of these initiatives will be included in The Will to Lead capital campaign.

“This plan is a continuation of what Clemson started in 2003 with the WestZone project to enhance our football stadium and build a first-class operational center for our football program,” said Athletic Director Terry Don Phillips. “We must develop facilities to allow us to continue to put our student-athletes in an environment where they can become as good as they possibly can be and also to increase our ability to recruit top student-athletes.”

“Over the past 10 years, Clemson has invested nearly $120 million in athletics facilities enhancements. These investments have benefited virtually every team, from football to women’s volleyball, from baseball to track, from golf to women’s rowing,” said President James F. Barker. “The next phase of improvements will be equally comprehensive in scope. Just as importantly — speaking as a president and architect — they will also improve pedestrian safety and visually enhance one of America’s most beautiful campuses.”

Football

Facility improvements for football will include building an indoor practice facility and finishing the WestZone project.

The indoor practice facility, which will be located where the current practice fields are, will feature a regulation-size artificial turf football field, a coach’s tower and video platforms. The building will have large garage-style doors, which can be raised to create an open-air space. The estimated cost of the project is $10 million.

“The indoor practice facility will be a highly significant addition for Clemson, not only for football but also for other sports to use,” Phillips said.

The $15.3 million WestZone project will feature the oculus, which is the main entrance to the WestZone, a fourlevel museum and an expansion of the northwest concourse.

Construction on the northwest concourse expansion is slated to begin soon and will be completed by the start of the 2011 season.

Bowers Fourth Unanimous All-American in Clemson history Clemson defensive end Da’Quan Bowers was named a first-team All-American by Sporting News. The selection made Bowers a unanimous first-team All-American for 2010, just the fourth player in Clemson history to be named a unanimous first-team All-American and the first junior to do it.

Earlier he was named by Associated Press, American Football Coaches Association, the Walter Camp Foundation and the Football Writers Association. These are the five major All-America teams recognized by the NCAA when it selects its consensus and unanimous All-America teams.

Bowers was also named a first-team All-American by CBS Sportsline, Rivals.com, Scout.com, Si.com, College Football News, and Phil Steele.

Bowers joins Terry Kinard (1982), Gaines Adams (2006) and C.J. Spiller (2009) as unanimous first-team All-Americans in Clemson history.

Bowers was one of 10 unanimous first-team All-Americans this year. The others are LaMichael James of Oregon (RB), Justin Blackmon of Oklahoma State (WR), Rodney Hudson of Florida State (OL), Gabe Carimi of Wisconsin (OL), Ryan Kerrigan of Purdue (DE), Luke Kuechly of Boston College (LB), Greg Jones of Michigan State (LB), Patrick Peterson of LSU (CB) and Prince Amukamara of Nebraska (CB).

Bowers could be considered the most honored Clemson player in history for a single season. He became the first Clemson player to win the Nagurski Award and the Hendricks Award. The Nagurski is selected by the Football Writers Association and goes to the top defensive player in college football. The Hendricks Award goes to the top defensive end in college football.

Bowers was also a finalist for the Lombardi Award and the Bednarik Award. He was also named the ACC Defensive Player of the Year.

Bowers led the nation in sacks with 15.5 and was second in tackles for loss with 26. His sack total is second in Clemson history for one season, best among defensive linemen, and is the most by an ACC player since 1999 when Keith Adams had a Clemson record 16 sacks. He had a streak of nine consecutive games with a sack, a school record.

Bowers’s tackle for loss total is the most by a Clemson defensive lineman since 1991 when Rob Bodine had 27.

Scott Named Top 25 Recruiter by Rivals.com Brad Scott was named one of the top 25 recruiters for 2011 in the nation by Rivals.com. It is the second website to name Scott among its top 25 for the 2011 football recruiting season. The website 247Sports also named him to its top 25 five days earlier.

Scott just completed his 12th season with the Clemson program. He has retired from coaching and will work in Clemson’s athletic administration going forward. Scott was one of

Clemson Spring Game Program | April 9, 2011

five ACC coaches named to the top 25 by Rivals. He signed two five-star recruits from Florida, and was involved in the recruitment of five members of Clemson’s 2011 recruiting class overall.

Rivals ranks Clemson’s recruiting class as eighth best nationally, just ahead of Oregon and Notre Dame. The site rates Clemson’s incoming group of linebackers as the best in the nation, the incoming wide receiver class as tied for first in the nation with Southern California, and the Clemson quarterback class as the fourth best in the nation.

Clemson in NCAA Statistics Clemson is in the top 25 in the nation in a number of statistical categories. Below is a rundown of Clemson’s standing in various categories.

• #4 in rushing touchdowns allowed (8) • #9 in touchdowns allowed (27) • #13 in scoring defense (18.77 • #10 in tackles for loss (7.4) • #14 in first downs allowed (17.1 • #24 in net punting (38.2) • #19 in total defense (320.3) • #22 in pass defense (191.85) Tough Schedule for the Tigers Clemson played a tough schedule in 2010. The Tigers played 10 teams that played in bowl games this year. Only South Carolina and Notre Dame played more. The 10 bowl opponents is the most in school history. Eight teams on Clemson’s schedule totaled seven regular-season wins, also a high in Clemson history.

Clemson played two non-conference games against top-25 teams, #15 Auburn, who went on to win the National Championship game, and #17 South Carolina, who played for the SEC title against Auburn.

This is the first time since 2005 and just the second time since 1989 that Clemson has faced two top-25 non-conference teams in the same regular season. In 2005, Clemson played a top-25 Texas A&M team and a top-25 Gamecock squad, and Clemson won both games. Clemson was the only ACC team to face two non-conference opponents ranked in the top 25 in the regular season in 2010.

C L E M S O N N OTES Clemson Defense Above Average Against Most Foes A look to Clemson opponent averages over the course the season shows that the Tigers held 10 of their 11 FBS regular season opponents under their scoring average and rushing average, nine opponents under their total offense average, and eight opponents under their passing yardage average this year.

In terms of scoring average, eight of the 11 regular season FBS opponents had at least their third-lowest scoring performance of the season against Clemson. N.C. State averaged 32.6 points per game this year, but scored just 13 against Clemson. That was the lowest total by the Wolfpack offense by 14 points this year, as Tom O’Brien’s team scored at least 27 points in every other game in 2010.

Maryland scored just seven points against the Tigers and averaged 31 points per game. That was the fewest points the Terrapins scored all year. Florida State averaged 32 points per game and had just 16 against Clemson. That was also the fewest points scored by the Seminoles this year. Auburn scored 27 points in a 27-24 overtime win against Clemson in September.

That was the third-lowest point total of the season for the SEC Tigers. They scored just 24 points in regulation.

Each of the last six opponents failed to reach their total offense average against Clemson, while each of the last four failed to reach their rushing yardage average. Each of the last four opponents failed to reach 100 rushing yards against the Tigers as well.

Only Miami (FL) reached its season average in terms of scoring against Clemson. Miami averaged 27 points per game and scored 30 against Clemson. In terms of rushing, only Boston College reached its season average against Clemson.

The Eagles averaged 133 yards per game on the ground in the regular season and had 169 against Clemson.

Clemson’s defense held South Carolina to 95 rushing yards, 60 yards under its average for the season. A big reason was Clemson’s ability to shut down freshman All-American

Marcus Lattimore, who had just 48 yards on 23 carries (2.1 yards per carry). That was the fewest yards-per-carry figure in the regular season for Lattimore in 2010.

Clemson Strong on Pass Defense Clemson had another top-25 season in terms of pass defense. The Tigers were 22nd in the nation in pass defense this year, allowing just 191.85 yards per game. DeAndre McDaniel had four interceptions to lead the team and also led the defense in tackles (84).

The Tigers held Georgia Tech to 6-19 passing for 83 yards.

The Yellow Jackets had an efficiency rating of 75.1 in the game.

Clemson held #23 N.C. State to 83 passing yards under its per-game average.

This is no surprise considering Clemson has been among the top 30 in the nation in pass efficiency defense each of the last seven years.

Clemson Pass Efficiency Defense (2004-10) Year Rating Rank 2004 103.4 11 2005 110.9 18 2006 106.4 17 2007 108.3 13 2008 101.7 10 2009 110.9 21 2010 116.2 27 Three Games Without a Turnover Clemson went three consecutive games without a turnover a midseason, a first in school history. The Tigers did not have a turnover at North Carolina or in the home wins over Maryland and Georgia Tech. The streak reached 238 consecutive offensive plays before Kyle Parker threw an interception at Boston College.

Clemson committed 23 turnovers in 2010, but 15 of them

Clemson’s DEFENSE swarmed opponents last season, finishing the year ranked 13th in the nation in scoring defense. The Tigers held each of their final six opponents below their total offense averages.

took place in four games, six against #16 Miami (FL), three at Boston College, three against #23 N.C. State, and three against #17 South Carolina. Clemson was 1-3 in those four games.

The Tigers have committed 64 turnovers in Dabo Swinney’s 34 games as head coach (1.9 per game).

Clemson outscored the opposition 61-56 in terms of points off turnovers in 2010. Twenty-six of the 56 opponent points off turnovers took place in two games, losses to #16 Miami (FL) and #17 South Carolina. In six of the 13 games, opponents did not record a single point off a Tiger turnover.

Clemson has a 6-3 record under Swinney when it does not commit a turnover. That is not a very good record in that situation when you see that Clemson was 48-10 (.828) in games without a turnover from 1980 until he became head coach in 2008. Clemson was 3-1 in games it did not have a turnover in 2009, with the only loss coming to #14 TCU by a score of 14-10.

The school record for games without a turnover in a season is five (1988,94). Clemson was 4-1 in 1988 in games without a turnover and 3-2 in 1994. Thus the 2010 team was just one off the school record for games without a turnover in a season.

Seniors Establishing Marks Clemson’s 2010 seniors accomplished quite a bit with 31 wins in the books. This group (20 seniors) enjoyed playing in Death Valley and had a 21-7 record (.750) in the last four years at home. That percentage is ahead of Clemson’s all-time winning percentage of 71 percent at home.

The group also recorded 12 wins over teams who finished the season with a winning record and 15 wins over teams that played in bowl games, including three in 2010 (Georgia Tech, Maryland, N.C. State). The Tigers averaged 28 points per game on offense and gave up 19 points per game on defense for an average victory margin of nine points per game over the four years.

In ACC play, the team had at least a break-even-or-better record each year, including winning the ACC Atlantic Division title in 2009 when Clemson had a 6-2 conference mark, tied for the best for the Clemson program since 1991. In 2007 and 2009, this class experienced a final top-25 ranking and won nine games, tied for the most victories for the program since 1990. The class also played in four bowl games.

Then around 11:30 AM, 10 Tigers, mostly linemen, became stuck in a hotel elevator. They were on the way to pregame meal.

It took 45 minutes to get the players out of the elevator. Local firefighters were called in and they had to break the door open to get the players out.

Head Coach Dabo Swinney had the situation under control.

“I told the guys to calm down. If they can get 33 miners out of that shaft in Chile, we can get 10 Clemson football players out of an elevator in Anderson, SC.” It is the second time on record that Clemson has had someone stuck in an elevator the day of a game. Prior to the 1982 Orange Bowl victory over Nebraska, Clemson junior running back Cliff Austin was stuck in the elevator at the team hotel for over an hour. He later scored a touchdown in the night-game victory that gave Clemson its only national title.

Six Graduates on Team During Regular Season Clemson had six graduates on the 2010 team during the regular season. The list of Tigers who had a cap and gown insignia on their helmets during the regular season to show they were graduates were Terrance Ashe, Daniel Barnes, Chris Hairston, Richard Jackson, Byron Maxwell, and Michael Wade.

Eight more Tigers earned their degrees on December 16. They include Brandon Clear, Xavier Dye, Brock Henderson, Shawn Leonard-Horwith, DeAndre McDaniel, Kasey Nobles, Ben Ramsey, and John Wright.

All-America Safety DeANDRE McDANIEL was one of eight Tigers to earn his degree in December, giving the Tigers a total of 14 graduates during the bowl game.

Clemson in the Top 20 Nationally in Home Attendance Clemson averaged 77,469 fans per home game in 2010, a figure that was 18th-best in the nation according to the NCAA website through the end of the regular season. It marked the 30th consecutive year Clemson has finished in the top 20 in the nation in average attendance. The streak started in 1981, the year Clemson won the national title, when Clemson finished 20th with an average of 61,859 fans per game.

The Tigers finished 17th in the nation in average attendance in 2009 with 75,793 fans per game, so it was a increase of 1,676 fans per game over the 2009 season. The 2010 season marks the 12th consecutive year Clemson averaged at least 75,000 fans per home game. Clemson also led the ACC in average attendance this year, while Florida State was second with just over 71,000 fans per home game.

Three Former Tigers Score NFL TDs on One Day Former Tigers Jacoby Ford, Michael Palmer, and Chansi Stuckey all scored touchdowns in NFL games on November 7.

It was the first career scores for Ford and Palmer, teammates on Clemson’s 2009 ACC Atlantic Division Championship team.

Ford scored on a 94-yard kickoff return for the Oakland

Clemson Spring Game Program | April 9, 2011

Raiders against the Kansas City Chiefs. It was the opening kickoff of the second half and gave the Raiders the lead.

Ford finished with four kickoff returns for 158 yards and also had six receptions for 148 yards. His 29-yard reception with only seconds left set up a 41-yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski that sent the game into overtime. His 47-yard reception in overtime set up Janikowski’s game-winning 33-yard field goal in overtime. Ford led the Raiders in receiving with 148 yards and finished the day with 306 all-purpose yards. He became just the second player in NFL history to have at least 140 receiving yards and 150 yards on kickoff returns in the same game.

Ford was the second former Tiger to return a kickoff for a touchdown this year. In September, C.J. Spiller returned a kickoff 95 yards for a score for Buffalo at New England. It marked just the second time in the last 40 years that two rookies from the same school returned a kickoff for a touchdown in the same year.

Palmer scored on a five-yard reception from Matt Ryan for the Atlanta Falcons in their 27-21 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Palmer finished the game with two receptions for 11 yards. There was a bit of irony in Palmer hauling in the pass from Ryan. Ryan was the quarterback for Boston College, an ACC rival, when Palmer was a freshman and sophomore.

Stuckey scored on an 11-yard run for the Cleveland Browns against the New England Patriots in the Browns’ 34-14 upset victory. It was just the second loss of the season for the Patriots.

Charlie Whitehurst started at quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks against the New York Giants. It was Whitehurst’s first career start, as he completed 12-23 passes for 113 yards and a touchdown. Whitehurst became the first former Tiger to start at quarterback in an NFL game since November 3, 1986, when Steve Fuller of the Chicago Bears started against the Los Angeles Rams.

With Whitehurst’s touchdown pass, it meant that a former Tiger accounted for a touchdown rushing (Stuckey), receiving (Palmer), passing (Whitehurst), and on a kickoff return (Ford) on the same day.

Connor and Ford Named to NFL All-Rookie Teams Two seniors on Clemson’s 2009 football team that helped the Tigers to the Atlantic Division ACC Championship and a final top 25 ranking were named to an NFL All-Rookie Team for the 2010 season.

Wide receiver and kick returner Jacoby Ford was named to the Pro Football Weekly and Pro Football Writers Association Teams, while linebacker Kavell Connor was named to the team selected by Yahoo Sports and the Bleacher Report.com.

Ford established an Oakland Raiders team record for kickoff returns for touchdown this past season when he had three. For the year he had 53 returns for 1280 yards, a 24.2 average. He also had 25 receptions for 470 yards and two scores, and gained 155 yards rushing in 10 attempts and scored twice.

He scored seven touchdowns overall and had 1905 all-purpose yards in 88 touches, an average of 21.65 yards per touch.

In week nine of the regular season, Ford helped the Raiders to an overtime victory against Kansas City with six receptions for 148 yards and a score on offense, and he had a 94-yard kickoff return for a score to open the second half to give the Raiders momentum. For his efforts, Ford was named the NFL Rookie of the Week.

Conner became a starter for the Indianapolis Colts by the middle of the season. He finished the year with 57 tackles, 52 of which came over the last 10 games of the year. He had 15 more tackles than any other rookie outside linebacker in the NFL. Four Tigers Named First-Team All-ACC Four Tigers, including three starters from the ACC’s leading scoring defense, were named First-Team All-ACC in 2010. The team was released by the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association in late November.

Junior defensive end Da’Quan Bowers, senior safety DeAndre McDaniel, and senior defensive tackle Jarvis Jenkins were all named First-Team All-ACC from the Clemson unit that tied for 13th in the nation in scoring defense. Clemson had more first-team selections to the All-ACC defensive team than any other school.

It was the first time that the Tigers have had three first-team selections on defense since the 2000 season and the first time Clemson has had four total first-team selections since 2007.

Graduate offensive tackle Chris Hairston was the only Tiger on offense to earn First-Team All-ACC honors. Sophomore tight end Dwayne Allen was a Second-Team All-ACC selection.

Clemson and Maryland had the most first-team selections with four apiece, while Boston College, Miami (FL), and Virginia Tech all had three apiece. Bowers is first in the nation in sacks (15.5) and second in tackles for loss (26).

McDaniel was named First-Team All-ACC for the second consecutive year. He had a team-high four interceptions. His

15 career interceptions are third-most among active FBS players and second-most in school history. He had a team-high 84 tackles in 2010 as well.

Jenkins was a key to Clemson’s defensive front this year.

He had 53 tackles, nine tackles for loss, and 16 quarterback pressures.

Hairston was Clemson’s top offensive lineman. A SecondTeam All-ACC selection in 2009, he provided holes for running backs Andre Ellington and Jamie Harper, who combined for 1,446 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns in 2010.

Allen had 33 receptions for 373 yards, second-most on the team. His reception total is the most in school history by a sophomore tight end.

Harper & Ellington Combine 1,446 Rushing Yards Clemson had a strong running combination for half of the 2010 season with Andre Ellington and Jamie Harper. Known as “The New Storm,” after Clemson’s previous combination of C.J. Spiller and James Davis was known as “Thunder & Lightning,” Ellington and Harper combined for 1,446 yards on 315 carries and 17 rushing touchdowns this year.

Ellington missed four complete games and played just three snaps in another due to a toe injury suffered at Boston College. He entered the bowl season third in the ACC in allpurpose yards per game and sixth in rushing yards per game.

He had 12 touchdowns, tied for third-most in the ACC. He did play in the bowl game after having surgery on December 13 and thus dropped out of the final ACC stats.

Harper had seven rushing touchdowns and three receiving touchdowns for 10 total touchdowns, second-most on the team.

Harper finished first on the team in all-purpose yards (1,131), including 1,088 yards from scrimmage, also a team-high.

Ellington had 1,033 all-purpose yards, including 238 yards on kickoff returns. He had a 34-yard average on seven kickoff returns this year, including an 87-yard kickoff return for a score against Maryland.

Rising junior running back ANDRE ELLINGTON registered 1,033 all-purpose yards and 12 touchdowns despite missing nearly five full games with a toe injury. His rehabilitation has been a storyline to watch in the spring.

CLEMS O N N O T E S Swinney Third Nationally in APR

According to research compiled by the website NCAAFootball.FanHouse.com off data provided by the NCAA, Head Coach Dabo Swinney is third in the nation in terms of APR scores for the Clemson program since he took over as head coach in 2008. The website captured data for the entering classes from 2003-04 through 2008-09, but is specific to each coach.

In 2003, the NCAA created the APR to monitor academic progress of its member institutions. The APR is a formula that takes into account semester-by-semester academic progress in terms of eligibility and retention rates for each scholarship student-athlete. The study includes APR scores at previous schools for a head coach who changes jobs.

Swinney’s program has had an APR score of 982 for his three years as head coach (2008 season was included in the study), trailing only the 985 by Troy Calhoun (Air Force) and Pat Fitzgerald (Northwestern). Greg Schiano (Rutgers) is fourth at 981 and Paul Johnson (Georgia Tech) is fifth at 980.

Allen was one of three ACC players on the list, including George Bryan (N.C. State) and Zack Pianalto (North Carolina).

Allen, one of just three sophomores on the list, was third on the team with 33 catches for 373 yards and a touchdown.

He had five catches for 66 yards at #15 Auburn and a careerhigh-tying seven receptions for 55 yards at North Carolina. He also had seven catches for 57 yards at Boston College. His receiving total is the most ever by a Clemson sophomore tight end. He was named Second-Team All-ACC at the conclusion of the regular season.

Benton Already Has Kicker Tackle Record Placekicker Spencer Benton had six special teams tackles in 2010 and 15 in his career. He done this in two years and has played only 26 games. He is already Clemson’s career leader in tackles by a kicker. All 15 of his tackles have taken place on kickoffs.

Benton’s nine tackles on kickoff returns in 2009 were a single-season record (special teams tackles date to 1986) and more than twice the previous record of four set by Stephen Furr (2002) and Mark Buchholz (2007).

Benton had three touchbacks in 64 kickoffs this year, but 19 times the Tigers held their opponent inside the 21 to start a drive. He is a big reason Clemson had a five-yard advantage when it comes to starting a drive after a kickoff. Tiger opponents started on average at their own 25 after a kickoff, while Clemson started at its own 30 on average.

Junior tight end DWAYNE ALLEN was one of 21 midseason members of the John Mackey Watch List, the honor that goes to the top tight end in college football Bowers Wins Hendricks Award & Nagurski Award Junior defensive end Da’Quan Bowers won the Ted Hendricks Award and Bronko Nagurski Award in 2010. The Hendricks Award goes to the top defensive end in the nation, while the Nagurski Award goes to the most outstanding defensive player in the nation.

Bowers is the first Tiger to win either award and the first Tiger to win more than one national award in the same year.

The only other Tiger to win a national position award is Terry Kinard, who was named CBS National Defensive Player-ofthe-Year in 1982.

“Da’Quan Bowers is an excellent choice for this year’s winner,” said Ted Hendricks, whom the award is named after.

“I like the way he plays the run because he really manhandles his opponents. This is an individual who possesses sheer natural talent. In the past, some have questioned his pass-rush abilities, but he’s the nation’s sack leader this year. Any more questions? Da’Quan clearly impressed our selection committee members, and I think they have made another fine choice.”

Bowers was also a finalist for the Bednarik Award and Lombardi Award, and he was a first-team All-American according to all major services. Bowers led the nation in sacks (15.5) and was second in tackles for loss (26). His sack total is second-best in Clemson history and is the most by an ACC player since 1999, when Keith Adams had a Tiger-record 16 sacks.

Bowers’ tackle-for-loss total is the most by a Clemson defensive lineman since 1991, when Rob Bodine had 27. Bowers had a streak of nine straight games involved in a sack during this season, the longest streak in Clemson history. Bowers was also named ACC Defensive Player-of-the-Year.

Bowers Moves Up ACC Sack List Junior defensive end Da’Quan Bowers had 15.5 sacks in 2010, just a half a sack short of the Clemson single-season record. His total was also seventh-best in ACC history for one season. The ACC record is 19 by Peter Boulware (Florida State) in 1996. The national record is 24 by Terrell Suggs (Arizona State) in 2002 (NCAA has kept defensive stats as an official stat since 1999).

Bowers’ 15.5 sacks were the most by any ACC player since 1999, when Clemson’s Keith Adams had 16. He already owns the Clemson single-season sack record for a defensive lineman, three more than Gaines Adams had in 2006.

However, he was 6-9 on field-goal tries of 40+ yards, good for 66.7 percent. That is the best field-goal percentage on kicks of 40+ yards since 2001, when Aaron Hunt was 5-5 from 40+ yards. Given a minimum of five field-goal attempts, Catanzaro’s 66.7-percent figure is seventh-best in school history from 40+ yards. Hunt and Donald Igwebuike own the record (100 percent).

He reached the 1,000-yard mark on his 151st carry. That is the second-fewest carries needed to reach 1,000 yards in school history. C.J. Spiller reached 1,000 yards in just 142 carries, so that remains the school record. Ellington had 491 yards on 68 carries in 2009 as Spiller’s backup.

Ellington had 107 rushing yards against the Miami (FL) defense on October 2. That effort included a 71-yard run, the longest by a Tiger since Spiller went 83 yards against Auburn in the 2007 Chick-fil-A Bowl. Ellington had four 100-yard games in 2010, including 140 yards at #15 Auburn on September 18.

Harper’s Consecutive 140-Yard Rushing Games Junior running back Jamie Harper carried the ball for the Clemson offense at running back literally and figuratively over the last quarter of the 2010 season. Running mate Andre Ellington suffered a toe injury at Boston College and played just three snaps over the last four games due to that injury. In a

loss at Florida State, Harper had 143 yards on 27 carries and finished with 197 yards from scrimmage, including 54 receiving yards on nine receptions. He followed that up with 142 yards on 24 carries in the win at Wake Forest and added 39 yards on three catches for 181 yards from scrimmage. His day included a 63-yard run for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. He was the game’s leading rusher against #17 South Carolina with 58 yards on 16 carries, 10 yards more than South Carolina’s Marcus Lattimore had in seven more carries.

Harper became the first Tiger to rush for at least 140 yards in consecutive games since 2005, when James Davis had 145 rushing yards at South Carolina in the regular-season finale and 150 rushing yards against Colorado in the Champs Sports Bowl.

Harper Caught Passes Out of Backfield Junior running back Jamie Harper is known for his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. He had 35 catches for 328 yards and three scores in 2010. The 35 catches were third-most in a season by a running back in school history. The record is 45

by Travis Zachery in 2001. C.J. Spiller had 36 catches in 2009, so it is an indication of how strong a year Harper has had in this area. Harper had nine catches for 54 yards at Florida State. The nine catches set a Clemson single-game record.

Hopkins Leads Receivers as a Freshman Freshman wideout DeAndre Hopkins was Clemson’s leading receiver in 2010 with 52 receptions for 637 yards and four touchdowns. He led the team in all three categories. Hopkins came on strong the last five games. During that time, he had 34 catches for 451 yards and three of his four touchdowns. He had three 100-yard receiving games in that time period, 106 yards at Florida State, 124 yards against #17 South Carolina and 105 on nine catches in the bowl game against South Florida.

That was the most receptions in a bowl game in Clemson history.

Facebook.com/ClemsonAthletics

Hopkins’ 52 receptions are second-most in Clemson history among all freshmen and most among first-year freshmen. His yardage figure is also best among first-year freshmen in school history and third among all freshmen.

Hopkins, who was a third-team freshman All-American

by Phil Steele, will likely be the first Tiger freshman to lead the team in receptions since 2001, when Hamilton had 53 catches.

Prior to that, you have to go back to 1990, when the late Terry Smith had 34 catches to lead a team that finished the year with a 10-2 record. Hopkins is the nephew of Smith.

State. It was his second block of the year and fourth of his career, as he also had a blocked extra point against #16 Miami (FL) in 2010. It was the first career miss on an extra point by Matt Bosher.

Jenkins had the last blocked kick by Clemson in 2009 when he blocked a field goal at South Carolina. Jenkins also had a blocked extra point in 2008 against N.C. State. The previous record by a Tiger was three. Mitch Belton (1988-90), and Brian Dawkins (1992-95), and Leomont Evans (1992-95) also had three blocked kicks in their careers.

McDaniel Finishes second in Interceptions Senior safety DeAndre McDaniel had his fourth interception of the season in the win over #23 N.C. State on November 6.

It was a clutch pick in the endzone off of Russell Wilson. The Wolfpack had recovered a fumble at the Clemson seven, but the interception denied N.C. State a score.

That was the 15th interceptions of McDaniel’s career. He finished his career tied for second in school history with his 15 picks and is just two short of Terry Kinard’s Clemson career

CLEMS O N N O T E S record of 17 set between 1978-82. Kinard is in the Clemson Ring of Honor and College Football Hall of Fame.

Kinard is tied with Fred Knoebel, a two-sport star in the early 1950s, for second place. McDaniel is also third in the nation in career interceptions among active FBS players.

Zimmerman Semifinalist for Ray Guy Award Junior punter Dawson Zimmerman was named one of 10 semifinalists for the Ray Guy Award, the honor presented each year to the nation’s top punter. The Ray Guy Award is presented by the Augusta Sports Council. Zimmerman was the only ACC punter in the top 10.

Zimmerman averaged 42.7 yards on 60 punts in 2010.

But his net punting figure of 40.6 (not including touchbacks) is what is remarkable. That is the fourth best net punting average in school history and the best since Dale Hatcher’s 42.4 figure in 1984.

Only 18 of his 60 punts were returned this year for a total of 92 yards. Nineteen of his punts were inside the 20 and just seven resulted in touchbacks. At one point, he went five consecutive games without allowing a punt return yard.

Zimmerman’s season included two punts of at least 76 yards. He had a 79-yarder in the season-opener against North Texas, the second-longest punt in Clemson history, and a 76-yarder at Boston College, the fourth-longest punt in Tiger history. He had a 51.5-yard average on six punts against North

Texas, the best performance in the nation that week.

His biggest play of the season might have come against #23 N.C. State on a 38-yard punt. Zimmerman snagged an errant snap with the one hand with the game on the line in the fourth quarter and got a rugby-style punt off that traveled to the N.C. State 15. Clemson won the game by a score of 14-13. Head Coach Dabo Swinney presented Zimmerman with a gameball after the contest for that play.

SWINNEY

Bowl Seasons as an Assistant Coach

At 41, Dabo Swinney is the youngest head coach in the ACC and one of the youngest in the country. However, his resumé is already stuffed with many significant accomplishments on a school, ACC, and national level.

First, his mere appointment to the position was significant. In October of 2008, he was named Clemson interim head coach, replacing Tommy Bowden, who had been his position coach as a player at Alabama and been Clemson’s head coach since 1999. He led the Tigers to a 4-2 record over the remainder of the regular season, including a victory over Steve Spurrier’s South Carolina Gamecocks in the regular-season finale.

That strong finish led to a Gator Bowl bid against Nebraska.

On December 1, 2008, the interim tag was removed from the title and he was named the program’s head coach. At the time, there had been 28 interim head coaches at the FBS level since 1970 and those coaches had combined for a record of 26-86-2. Only one of those 28 interim coaches posted a winning record (min. 3 games), and that was Swinney. When he was hired as the head coach, Swinney became just the second interim coach to be elevated to the head coach position at the same school during that time period.

In addition to leading the program to three bowl games on the field in his young career, his players have also excelled in the classroom. In his career as a head coach, his players have an APR score of 982, third-best among active FBS level coaches and best in the ACC. Clemson had to replace three First-Team AllACC position players in 2010, as Jacoby Ford, Michael Palmer, and C.J. Spiller moved on to the NFL. It was the first year since 1956 that Clemson had to replace three First-Team All-ACC skill position players in the same year. All three players performed well in the NFL in 2010, further

showing their talent level.

Swinney was just the second Tiger coach to lead Clemson’s program into a bowl game in his first two full years as head coach, joining his predecessor, Tommy Bowden. The 2010 schedule was one of the most challenging in school history, as nine bowl teams were on the regular-season slate and two of the four non-conference opponents were ranked in the top 25 when they played the Tigers, just the second time in 21 years the Tigers faced two top-25 non-conference opponents in the regular season.

The 2010 season included wins over bowl teams Georgia Tech, Maryland, and N.C. State.

The Wolfpack was ranked #23 in the nation and was leading the ACC in scoring. But the Clemson defense held N.C. State to just one touchdown and 13 points. The team excelled defensively in 2010 and was 13th in the nation in scoring defense and in the top 25 in both total defense and pass defense.

Spiller was a unanimous first-team All-American in Swinney’s first full year, and defensive end Da’Quan Bowers duplicated the feat on the defensive side of the ball. Bowers won the 2010 Bronko Nagurski Award as the nation’s top defensive player, and he received the Ted Hendricks Award as the top defensive end. He was also a finalist for the Bednarik Award and Lombardi Award. He led the nation in sacks (15.5) and was tied for the national lead in total tackles for loss (26).

Bowers was one of four First-Team All-ACC players in 2010, as he joined DeAndre McDaniel (S) and Jarvis Jenkins (DT) on defense and Chris Hairston (OT) on offense. Clemson and Maryland tied for the most First-Team All-ACC selections.

In 2009, Swinney’s first full year as head coach, he led the Tigers to their first championship of the ACC’s Atlantic Division. The Tigers

came just six points short of winning their first ACC title in 18 years. Swinney was named ACC Coach-of-the-Year by Sporting News and was a finalist for the Liberty Mutual Coach-of-the-Year award.

Swinney accumulated nine wins, second-most among all FBS coaches in their first full year behind Oregon’s Chip Kelly. The nine wins tied for fourth-most in ACC history for a first-year head coach. He also led the Tigers to their first bowl win since 2005 in the 21-13 victory over Kentucky in the Music City Bowl.

The Tigers reached the nine-win mark playing a schedule that included four games against top-15 opponents, just the second year in school history (1999 was the other) that Clemson played four games against teams ranked in the top 15 of the AP poll. The Tigers’ three FBS non-conference opponents had a combined record of 29-10 in 2009. Clemson gave TCU one of its stiffest tests in a 14-10 Horned Frog victory on September 26.

Swinney’s first season included a six-game winning streak at midseason, a streak that saw the Tigers score at least 34 points in every game, a first in school history. During that stretch, the Tigers defeated #8 Miami (FL) on the road. The 40-37 overtime victory tied for the highest-ranked

HEAD C O A C H D A B O S W I N N E Y team Clemson has defeated on the road in school history.

That was the second of six straight wins, the longest winning streak for the Clemson program in four years. The streak also included a 40-24 nationally-televised win over Florida State and Bobby Bowden, the Hall of Fame coach who is second in victories in FBS history. The winning streak brought Clemson to a #15 national ranking in the AP poll after the ACC Atlantic Division clinching victory over Virginia on November 21.

The Tigers had success on offense, defense, and special teams during the 2009 season. They were 28th in the nation and third in the ACC in scoring offense (31.1), while the defense was 20th in total defense (314.3) and seventh in pass defense (162.8). Clemson finished in a tie for fifth in the country in interceptions (21) as well.

Clemson added a school-record six kick returns for touchdowns in 2009, four on kickoff returns and two on punt returns.

The main reason Clemson was so outstanding on special teams was the play of college football’s most dynamic player (Spiller) in 2009. The Tiger running back was named MVP of the ACC in 2009 and was a consensus first-team All-American. He had five kick returns for touchdowns during the 2009 season, an all-time Clemson record, and established the NCAA record for kickoff returns for touchdowns in a career with seven. He was also the only FBS player to score at least one touchdown in every game in 2009.

Overall, the Tigers held down three positions on the All-ACC First-Team and five spots on the second team. Only Virginia Tech had more representatives.

Swinney became Clemson’s interim head coach on October 13, 2008 when Tommy Bowden stepped down. Then on December 1, 2008, the “interim” tag was removed, as he took over on a full-time basis as the Tigers’ 25th head coach.

He had been Clemson’s assistant head coach for two years and had been in charge of the wide receivers since 2003.

Swinney took over a 3-3 team and led it to a Gator Bowl bid against Nebraska. He guided Clemson to a 4-1 record over the last five games of the regular season, with the only loss at #24 Florida State. That 4-1 record to end the regular season tied for the best mark in the ACC for that time period. Four of his six regular-season opponents were later bowl participants.

Swinney hit the ground running in his first week as interim head coach, as he prepared for a 5-1 Georgia Tech team. He had to re-organize his staff, and regroup his team and Clemson Nation in just five days. While the Tigers lost by four points, he accomplished many goals in that first week through his outstanding leadership. One of the most impressive demonstrations of unity came during the team’s “Tiger Walk.”

Prior to the game against the Yellow Jackets, Swinney decided to have his team depart buses outside the Lot 5 parking lot near the WestZone at Memorial Stadium and experience the gameday atmosphere. Dressed in jackets and ties, the team was embraced by thousands of Tiger fans who stood 10 deep for the 200-yard march to the stadium. It was the centerpiece of his “All In”

theme in his first week as head coach. It is a tradition that has continued.

In his second week as head coach, an offweek, he invited the Clemson student body to a practice, and nearly 1,000 students showed up.

He spoke to the group and actually allowed some students to participate during practice, as they were selected to attempt a field goal, punt against a live rush, and field a punt. He also took the entire team to the Greenville Children’s Hospital for a visit with young men and women fighting cancer.

He has continued his community involvement through his foundation. His foundation made the first contribution to the cancer fund established for Boston College linebacker Mark Herzlich.

Many schools followed his lead the remainder of the season.

The Liberty Mutual Coach-of-the-Year award evaluates coaching performances in terms of coaching excellence, sportsmanship, integrity, academic excellence, and community commitment.

It is easy to see why Swinney was a national finalist for that award in his first full season as head coach in 2009.

The 1993 Alabama graduate joined the Clemson staff prior to the 2003 season. In his eight years as an assistant or head coach, the Tigers have finished in the top 25 of the final polls four times and totaled 11 wins over top-25 teams, including victories over Florida State (4), Miami (FL) (2), and Tennessee (1), during his tenure in Tigertown.

Swinney coached his wide receiver position to a level of consistency that had not been seen previously at Clemson. He had a wideout finish first or second in the ACC in catches five of the last six years. In his first year, he had three of the top10 receivers in the ACC, a first in Tiger history.

He has coached a First or Second-Team All-ACC wideout (Derrick Hamilton, Airese Currie, Chansi Stuckey, Aaron Kelly, Ford) in seven of his eight seasons at Clemson, also an unprecedented feat at Clemson.

In 2004 and 2005, he coached the ACC reception champion (Currie (2004), Stuckey (2005)).

It was the first time Clemson had two different players lead the ACC in receptions in consecutive years. In 2007, Kelly led the ACC in yards, giving Swinney an ACC receiving king three out of four years. Stuckey earned First-Team All-ACC honors in back-to-back years, a first for a Tiger wideout in 25 years.

The play of Swinney’s wide receivers was a big reason Clemson led the ACC in total offense, rushing offense, and scoring offense during the 2006 season, just the second time an ACC team led the conference in all three categories during the previous 25 seasons. The Tigers also led the league and set school records for yards per play (6.5) and touchdowns (55).

In 2007, Swinney coached Kelly, a First-Team All-ACC selection who led the league in receiving yards per game and touchdown catches (11). He also finished second in receptions per game with a school-record 88 catches, tied for the secondhighest total in ACC history. His 11 touchdown catches were a Tiger record as well.

Kelly is Clemson’s and the ACC’s career recep-

The Alabama native has a reputation as one of the top recruiters in the nation. In 2006, he was listed as the #5 recruiter in the nation by Rivals. com. It marked the second straight year that he was lauded by the website as a top-25 national recruiter. He signed 38 players in his five recruiting seasons as an assistant coach and was a major reason Clemson’s 2008 recruiting class was rated #2 in the nation by ESPN.com when he signed 11 players. He was named one of the top-25 recruiters in the nation by Rivals. com in 2007 as well.

When Swinney accepted the interim head coaching position on October 13, 2008, he described his feelings as “bittersweet” because he was taking over for Bowden, who had been his first position coach at Alabama in 1989.

He had also brought Swinney back to the coaching profession in 2003 and has had a profound effect on his life. Both had followed similar paths as players, as Bowden was a walk-on at West Virginia and Swinney was a walkon at Alabama.

Swinney received a commerce & business administration degree from Alabama in 1993 after lettering three times (1990-92). A walk-on who went on to earn a scholarship, Swinney was a wide receiver on Alabama’s 1992 National Championship team. He was also named Academic All-SEC along with being an SEC Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll member in 1990 and 1992.

Along with his appearance in the 1993 Sugar Bowl, his Alabama teams played in the 1990 Sugar Bowl, 1991 Fiesta Bowl, and 1991 Blockbuster Bowl. Both Sugar Bowl appearances came after winning the SEC Championship game.

After his playing career, Swinney served as a graduate assistant from 1993-95 at Alabama, where he coached in the 1994 Gator Bowl and 1995 Citrus Bowl. In December of 1995, he received a master’s degree in business administration from Alabama.

He became a full-time assistant coach at Alabama in February of 1996 under Head Coach Gene Stallings (now in the Hall of Fame) and coached a total of five seasons there on a full-time basis. He was assigned to coach the Crimson Tide’s wide receivers and tight ends in 1996, a season that saw

Alabama win the SEC Western Division title and make an Outback Bowl appearance. The following year, he solely coached the tight ends under Head Coach Mike DuBose.

In 1998, he coached Alabama’s wide receivers, a position he held for three seasons. At the end of the 1999 campaign, Swinney coached the Crimson Tide in the 2000 Orange Bowl after winning the SEC Championship game. Wide receiver Freddie Milons was the game MVP. During his time at Alabama, Swinney was a part of six teams with at least 10 wins, five top-10 finishes, one national title (1992), three SEC championships (1989,92,99), and five SEC Western Division titles (1992,93,94,96,99) as a player and coach. He has coached the #2 receiver at Alabama (Milons) along with the #1 (Kelly) and #2 (Hamilton) receivers in Tiger history.

Since 1997, he has had 20 former players either drafted or sign freeagent contracts with NFL teams. The list includes Hamilton, Currie, Kevin Youngblood, Stuckey, and Milons, an All-American at Alabama.

From April of 2001 through February of 2003, Swinney was in private business in Alabama. He married the former Kathleen Bassett in 1994.

They have three sons, Will (12), Drew (10), and Clay (7).
