Dabo Swinney Joins Live Call as Four-Star Safety Kentavion Anderson Commits to Clemson

Kentavion “Polo” Anderson, a four-star safety from Roebuck, S.C., has officially committed to Clemson — and he made sure the moment would never be forgotten.

During a live commitment stream with On3, Anderson paused mid-announcement to call none other than Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney himself. As the crowd leaned in, Anderson held up his phone. “Hello, is this Marco?” Swinney answered, playing along.

“Yes sir, it’s Polo,” Anderson replied, triggering a familiar and thunderous response from Swinney:

“Marcoooo… Polooooo! Let’s GOOOO!!”

The entire room erupted as Anderson laughed, then asked, “Coach, where are we going?”

“We’re going to Clemson!” Swinney shouted, as Anderson stood up and placed the Tigers hat on his head. His family, seated beside him, all rose and opened their jackets to reveal orange Clemson shirts underneath, sealing the celebration with a powerful show of unity.

It was a heartfelt and electric moment — the kind that only Dabo Swinney seems to pull off with such ease.
