Clemson’s possible Kelly replacement

Don’t forget Wade in Clemson’s QB battle
To date, the Clemson Tigers' Michael Wade hasn't exactly done much as a quarterback. In fact, many don't even seem to realize that he's in competition for the position. The former three-star 2006 recruit from Riverside High School in Greer, S.C., passed for over 1,300 ... |
Clemson’s Bowers makes defense go

Tajh Boyd and the Clemson QB situation

When senior quarterback Cullen Harper threw his final pass in a Clemson Tigers uniform, a new age started. The question was: Who would lead it? The answer could be last season’s No. 2 quarterback, Willy Korn.
When the 6-foot-2, 215-pound Korn came out of high school ... |
The Clemson QB few are talking about: Kyle Parker
It's fair to say Clemson Tigers backup quarterback Willy Korn has the best chance of earning the starting job for 2009. But there’s been a lot of press regarding new recruit Tajh Boyd, who many believe will push Korn as a true freshman.
Of course, to forget about th ... |
Clemson must commit to the running game
Clemson's 2008 football season could be described as turbulent, but that might be an understatement. Going from preseason national championship contender to firing your head coach to playing in a New Year’s Day bowl runs the gamut of success and failure as much as any ... |
