MOO U News: Vic Koenning laughing his tail off at Clemson

THIS IS A "FAKE" STORY - DO NOT TAKE IT TOO SERIOUS!

AUTHOR: RUSTY CRANKSHAFT --

Illinois Defensive Coordinator Vic Koenning, who was Clemson’s defensive coordinator until Tommy Bowden was fired, is apparently “laughing his tail off” at Dabo’s decision to fire Kevin Steele following the Orange Bowl.  Koenning, who once referred to Dabo Swinney as “Goat Boy” for his tendency to offer players that were not Division 1 caliber, says the turmoil in the upstate is what he expected after they gave the job to an insurance salesman in a sweatshirt. 

Koenning, who is the new Associate Head Coach for Defense in Chapel Hill for the Tar Heels, looks forward to pummeling whoever ends up in Clemson.  “As long as Swinney is doing the hiring I am in good shape.”  Koenning says the best part of the recent Orange Bowl for him was Swinney’s pre-game declaration that the Clemson defense would capture the nation’s attention against West Virginia and make history.  “Well, he was right I guess.  That may be the one thing he’s been right about.”
