If reports are true, this would be a great hire for SMU and a huge loss for Clemson.
A high-level #SMU source told me #Clemson OC Chad Morris has agreed to a multi-year contract averaging more than $3 million per year.

An announcement of Chad Morris as #SMU's new head coach likely the first week of December, SMU source told me.

When asked about the report by ClemsonInsider.com, Morris said he’s focused on the Tigers’ game against South Carolina.
The Clemson Insider reached out to several sources from Clemson and none of them could confirm the reports out of Dallas area. We also reached out to Morris himself by text and said, “Unreal, everyone thinks they know. Sorry completely focused on SC.”
I suspect the rumors are true, but we’ll know for sure the first couple weeks of December when an announcement is expected.
