While they were rivals, Dabo Swinney and Steve Spurrier were also friends while the two of them coached together in the state of South Carolina. Good enough friends, apparently, that Swinney even has a voicemail saved on his phone from Spurrier.

Based on what Spurrier says in the message, it was sent in August 2014 when Clemson opened its season with a 45-21 loss to Georgia, and South Carolina began with a 52-28 loss at home against Texas A&M. Spurrier called Dabo to offer him encouragement after the loss.

It's clear how much it meant to Swinney considering it's been over two years since the loss, and he still has the voicemail saved.
