Lawton Swann, a 2002 Clemson graduate, has more than 18 years of experience covering Clemson athletics. In 2004, Swann started with a $19 headset and a dream of providing Clemson sports content to Tiger fans around the world. Launching his first podcast in the fall of 2005, the Clemson Sports Talk brand was born. CST has been sydicated around the state of South Carolina and can be heard worldwide on iHeart Radio on Fox Sports Radio 1400.
The Tigers finished the year 23-10 overall and 14-6 in the ACC-- a record-setting year in conference play, but it wasn't enough to get into the field of 68.
Clemson's loss was littered with missed opportunities, but perhaps the defining takeaway from this observer's perspective is that Cade Klubnik's future is bright.
