"I love this place," Howard once said. "I've got a spot already picked out where I want 'em to put me when I die - up there on that ole hill near the stadium. I want to be there so I can hear all them people cheering my Tigers on Saturdays…then I won't have to go Heaven; I'll already be there."

in reference to Clemson;
“This place was built on winning, and we have to get that mindset back. You are here to win. You practice to win. You meet to win. You eat to win. You sleep to win. Everything you do goes into creating a mindset.”
That, to me, sums it all up.

At one of his weekly press conferences, Dabo Swinney, in reference to Clemson said:
“This place was built on winning, and we have to get that mindset back. You are here to win. You practice to win. You meet to win. You eat to win. You sleep to win. Everything you do goes into creating a mindset.”
