Tigernet posted this picture after the 2000 Clemson/SC game. My brother, Will, is wearing the orange sweatshirt.
He was 14 years old and this would be his last Palmetto Bowl. He tragically passed Sept 30, 2001, the Sunday after Dantzler beat the Jackets in Atlanta. A friend of a friend sent this to me this morning.
No one loved Clemson football more than he did.
A quick memory that will always stand out to me - when Marshall came to town and beat us in 1999, he was 13 and I was 9. He said to me, “Clemson will never be good like the days dad always talks about.” Boy, if he could’ve seen the last 10 years.
