About this episode

On this episode of The Colin Cowherd Podcast, Colin kicks things off by explaining why Tim Tebow's attempted NFL comeback shows a lack of self-awareness (1:00). His guest is 2-time national championship winning Clemson Football Head Coach Dabo Swinney, who discusses surviving a slow start to his Clemson run (5:00), if it's harder building a winner or maintaining one (8:00), how he overcame childhood adversity (13:00), the behind the scenes story of why he called Colin a 'fraud' after winning the 2016 national title (19:00), what makes Trevor Lawrence a potentially generational talent (23:00), why he passes on high level recruits if they don't fit the program culture (29:00). He also answers some rapid fire questions to wrap things up (34:00)!
