Saints DC Rob Ryan on Clemson: "It's really special"


by - Senior Writer -

New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said Clemson should expect to see tons of NFL people at future Pro Days, and said that Thursday’s showing was also a credit to defensive coordinator Brent Venables.

“They are really well coached by Venables - one of the top coaches in the country - so you know what you're getting there,” Ryan told TigerNet. “You meet with the players individually to find out more about them. It's a great opportunity to do that and that's why you come to Clemson Pro Day, and because of how well-run of a program as they have here.”

Ryan added that Clemson is only going to get better.

“They do a great job of recruiting. It's fun to watch this program really grow,” he said. “It has taken off to new heights and it's really special.”

Ryan has been coaching in the NFL since 2000 with stops at New England, Oakland, Cleveland, Dallas and New Orleans.
