New Clemson offensive coordinator Garrett Riley has arrived in the Upstate.

Riley arrived at the Pickens Country airport Thursday night at about 8:55 p.m. He was joined on the flight by his family, as well as Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney. The plane took off in Fort Worth, Texas, before landing in the Upstate.

Riley was previously the offensive coordinator at TCU. He helped the Horned Frogs reach the national title game this season, before they were blown out by Georgia on Monday.
