Tim Bourret is a Clemson icon and will be inducted into the school's athletics Hall of Fame on Friday night.

Bourret also was a member of Dabo Swinney's inner circle when Swinney was ascending from interim coach to permanent coach to Hall of Fame coach.

Swinney said Bourret has always provided him valuable counsel.

"He tells the truth to me. He's tough and firm when he needs to be."

Bourret joins The Dubcast not just to reminisce about all the behind-the-scenes history with Swinney, but also to give his take on the current state of the football program with the Tigers at 3-5 entering Saturday night's game against Florida State.
