Didn’t wait for them to get way ahead. Started immediately. The comment that some schools use players but Clemson molds players was the last straw. Willy Korn might have a different opinion.
Interesting. The Washington Post asked him a week ago and he seems to have nothing but good things to say.
‘Referring to Swinney’s personality as “dynamic” and “personable” and relatable,” Willy Korn, then a Clemson quarterback, said, “He doesn’t know any strangers.”’ ‘“I remember him asking the coaches to leave and it’s just the players,” said Korn, through his keen lens as a 29-year-old receivers coach at Coastal Carolina. “‘Hey, you know what, I know we’re in a difficult situation and I know this isn’t what you guys signed up for,’” Korn recalled. Said Korn, “You feel a tremendous amount of pride to know you were in that room for that first team meeting,” quite a telling statement from a man who wound up transferring out in 2010 yet, to hear him talk, without bitterness.
