Clemson had a rough 2023 college football season as the team performed below expectations. The Tigers recorded four losses in 2023, which is a rare occurrence under Dabo Swinney and placed his job under some threat. However, it now appears he will stay on at Death Valley.
With a hope for a better season in 2024, the team's roster is definitely going to take a new shape with high school recruit and transfer portal acquisitions coming in. Conversely, this will see a couple of players move out of the program ahead of the next college football season.
