This article was originally published on www.si.com/college/clemson as Bill Belichick on Clemson Tigers Head Coach: 'Everyone is Learning from Dabo'. To be recognized highly by a six-time Super Bowl champion and UNC head coach Bill Belichick is quite the honor, and Clemson Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney received that recognition at ACC Kickoff.

Despite his six Super Bowl rings as New England Patriots head coach, Bill Belichick said he is "learning" from another college coaching great as he shifts in his career, taking a few pages from two-time College Football Playoff national champion Dabo Swinney of Clemson.

Belichick avoided the rows of radio reporters in the hotel lobby and spent much of the morning in a hallway outside the green room for players and coaches, down the hall from private rooms for interviews with ESPN.com, SiriusXM and the ACC Digital Network.
