Seth Ryan, son of NY Jets head coach Rex Ryan, said he knew ten minutes into a conversation with Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney that Clemson is where he wanted to spend his college career, and his mother fell so in love with the the campus and the people that she is headed out to buy orange for her wardrobe.
"I was completely blown away by everything and Coach Swinney especially", said Seth. "The way he cares about his players is amazing- he is one of the best players' coaches in the nation. My parents love the facilities, the stadium, the way they structure their academics, and how their academics come first. Everything I wanted in a college was there."
"The stadium is huge", he said. "I love the way they come out and get on the bus, and they drive around the stadium and the place is going nuts. And then they have Howard's rock on the hill - there is no other school in the country that does anything like that. When we were going over that part it was sending chills down my spine. I want to be there right now."
Seth said his parents fell in love with Clemson as well.
"My parents loved it", he said. "I think you know how much my dad [HC of an NFL football team] loved it. My mom loved it, too. She loved the family-oriented atmosphere."
