Left out how small Hunter is and how recruiters from major

colleges stayed away from him because of that despite spectacular Socastee MVP career there, where he was as great dual purpose QB and may have not caught a pass? Smaller colleges wanted him badly...GLAD HE WANTED TO PROVE HIMSELF AT CLEMSON AS A WALK-ON RECEIVER!

a tiger. Otherwise he would be tearing it up at Furman, Newberry, PC or something like that as a quarterback. I'm glad he wanted the chance at the big stage. I'm also thankful for guys like Dabo who appreciate work ethic and have a good eye for raw talent.

Yeppers, Hunter could have been eating our DBs lunch in one of those we supposed to beat down games we play at the first of the season. The kid can run routes like a seasoned 5*, and he will draw coverage off other good receivers next year bc they will be watching Hunter pretty close!!!

No, I think he would have been a dangerous dual-threat QB

at one of the smaller school and also APP. State, who would have used him in a minute at QB!

He deserves that scholarship that was given to him. These coaches knows talent and knows that if these kids are willing to work and learn they can be great or be greater. If they come here realizing that they will need to learn and grow, and not think because of their rankings they don't have to work, then they will get bigger, stronger, and better each time they go to the weight room, the practice field. I am counting on our recruits to shine for Clemson. GO TIGERS!

Awesome story. It shows that under Dabo's leadership, Clemson will always be a quality program with a heart and soul to match.

Just shows that stars don't always tell the whole story. Stars don't measure heart and desire all the time. Dabo & co. have proved this, so I don't worry about wasted Scholarships on folks. Coaches know what they are doing. If you want wasted scholarships look no further than Bellamy & Kelly.

5-star Hunter Renfrow
Feb 9, 2016, 11:28 AM

He proved he's a massive talent that I see playing at the next level. His routes are crisp and he has disceptive speed. Everyone laughed when the play by play guy at the Miami game said he'd leave as clemsons all time receiver. He'll play four years here. Its not that unthinkable. GO TIGERS !!!

He was in civil engineering but since becoming a big time player he had transferred to business.

He'll have sneaky stats, like kickers

I'm always shocked to hear that a kicker is the leading scorer for a team, but they are out there getting 1 and 3 points... all the time. If Hunter stays all four years, he'll quietly pick up yardage/points and do very well for himself.

We finally have a coaching staff that DEVELOPS players!!

So many years from West to Bowden we could recruit talent but they never got any better and it was so frustrating to know that talent was sitting right there just waiting for coaching. Not only do we develop talent, we can get more out of our talent than anyone in the country. Saban has had top 3 classes for 9 years straight and we went toe to toe and were 2 plays away from beating the Gold Standard with our mix of 5*, 4*, 3* and walk ons! I absolutely love it even though it still hurts like a kick in the stomach.

Granted he was young, but he didn't really show his talent until Venables took over and coached him up.

Perfect Example! One I could never get over was Rendrick Taylor.

I know he had injuries but the guy was strong as an ox and fast enough to be tailback but for some reason Bowden could never develope him into anything.

Another one from Marlboro County

I dont know what it is but guys from Marlboro county just never seem to pan out. Tymere Zimmerman could catch a gnat in a snow storm. Wish he would have made the grade. Cause he would have been a good one. But look at Syvelle "Thuglife" Newton at Sakerlina, Taylor and Lateek Townsen. Robert Ayers is the only one that comes mind, that lived up to potential.

Hi Cotton Tigger, I agree with what you are saying! However, if you are still hurting from our loss to Alabama, then please consider the following. I don't know if you made the NC Game, but I was fortunate to get a last-minute, chartered flight. It took off at 8AM game day and returned the next day, landing exactly 24 hours later. The pride I carry from that trip is indescribable! Our team give it their all, never quit, and did it with class! After our Tigers respectfully congratulated Alabama and headed towards Clemson's Locker Room, Tiger Nation exploded with applause and cheers for a job well done... the effort and the GUTS! It lasted for quite a while and was truly amazing! I sat beside the tunnel across from Tiger Band, close enough to see that (though a little down) the team appreciated our support! Don't let it hurt; we have a Head Coach, a Staff, a Clemson Tiger Team, and incredible Tiger Fans which are, rest assured, the envy of many! Love it; appreciate it, but don't hurt! As Dabo says, "The best is yet to come!" Go Tigers!

It took their best game of the season to beat us

Bama coached and played a masterful game and we still gave them all they could handle.
On those last few drives, Bama's mighty defense was absolutely gassed. If we'd only had a little more time...

Yes I sure do still hurt from that game. We were so close!

We went toe to toe, line of scrimmage to line of scrimmage against the best. I did have a chance to go 2 days before at the last minute but I have too many responsibilities these days to go across the country at the last minute's notice lol.

With Bowden the team you saw at the start of the season was all you were going to get. Under Dabo, his teams continue to develop as the season goes on. Not sure exactly why, but is was obvious.

Figured out how to stop us later in the season. One team would beat us and the rest of the schedule had the blueprint on film.

Renfrow outplayed Artavis down the home stretch ...
Feb 9, 2016, 11:26 PM

This may have been due to Scott's shoulder injury, knee surgery and resulting fear of taking a hit (it is understandable). In any event, a healthy Scott and Renfrow should provide very strong play from slot next season. Meanwhile I would love to see Williams and Cain on the outside - this would really open up the Offense as both can stretch the field and catch the deep ball. The rest of WR's, and there are many good ones, are icing on the cake. Hopefully, some of these WR's can play CB or Safety to help the 2016 Tigers where the team most needs help.

Like others have said, kinda reminds you of Dabo a bit and his football story. I think He's a smart kid, and a great route runner. He'll catch more balls this year as well still amongst the competition, he's a trusted target for #4. Big upside on this kid.
