"I am incredibly appreciative of Brandon for all he accomplished at Clemson in his 15 years as a player, graduate assistant, position coach and offensive coordinator. I am thankful for Brandon and love him and his family. He has always represented Clemson University with great pride, and I know he will continue to do great things," said head coach Dabo Swinney in a statement Thursday evening.
"As the leader of this program, I am accountable for our staff and accountable for our results, and though we took a step forward offensively in 2022, after evaluating our offense in-depth, I felt it was in the best interest of our program to seek new leadership at that position. These decisions are never easy, but it is my job to evaluate and assess every part of our program every year, and this was just the right time to make a change.
"I look forward to bringing in a dynamic, proven leader at offensive coordinator with the specific purpose of meeting — and raising — the standard of excellence that has been established at Clemson. I passionately believe in our staff and in the young men in our program and am excited about the opportunity to see them grow even more in 2023."
Streeter, 46, had been a full-time assistant with the Tigers dating back to the 2015 season following a stint as Richmond's offensive coordinator from 2012-2014. Streeter was elevated to offensive coordinator and play-caller in December of 2021 following Tony Elliott's departure to Virginia.
The Tigers showed year-over-year improvement offensively in 2022, averaging 33.2 points per game and 410.3 total yards a contest after averaging 26.3 ppg and 359 yards a game in 2021.
Clemson was however out of the College Football Playoffs for the second consecutive year and lost to rival and 14-point underdog South Carolina for the first time in nine years.
