Clemson has a new defensive coordinator this season, replacing Wes Goodwin with former Penn State DC and Indiana head coach Tom Allen. The Tigers did not replace any other defensive position coaches, but Allen’s son has also joined as an analyst.

Even though Dabo Swinney favors the offensive side of the ball, he has just made another splashy hire to help round out Tom Allen's defensive staff. Mike Houston may have been a problem for East Carolina,

Lonnie Galloway spent six seasons with North Carolina, working primarily with its wide receivers. He announced he is coming to Clemson on Thursday.

Former ECU Head Football Coach Mike Houston now knows where he will be coaching next year. Houston is headed South to The Palmetto State to join the staff at Clemson University under Dabo Swinney. He will be a defensive assistant coach with the Tigers.
