The Clemson Tigers are certainly busy so far this offseason with recruiting, the transfer portal, and adding a new defensive coordinator.
In 2024, it was a big step forward for the program.
The Tigers were able to win 10 games and an ACC title, but after earning their automatic bid to the College Football Playoff, they were eliminated in the first round.

Dabo Swinney received the excellent news that a couple of his top players will be returning. On the offensive side of the ball, Cade Klubnik will be back for his senior season, and wide receiver Antonio Williams will be returning a
