Here is a subject to debate that should interest us all.

A few years ago our Tigers had a walk-on guy from Dorman High who quickly won us over with his dynamic play and hustle. This kid ended up in Tampa Bay where he has become a very steady NFL player. Nine TDS in the pros vs. 3 at Clemson. It is obvious that his “twin” walk on will very soon follow him to the land of big bucks! So. Who is your favorite among these two? I couldn’t begin to chose one over the other. Remember, one played with Boyd and the other with Watson:Lawrence

My favorite is Renfrow obviously. Who will be better in the NFL? I don't know.

Humphries and Renfrow. I think I have to go with Renfrow as my favorite just because of his play in the national championship games. Even against very good defenses he could make things happen. And you can't forget his Benny Hill catch and run to start the second half down in caponland.

I guess that writer was dead wrong. Just shows we should trust our coaches.

Folks would read STS daily then come to Tnet and puke the same bile all over this website. I hated them all and love seeing them crawl back under their rocks.

Bahaahaa, what a total clown!! It’s one thing to get it wrong, but another to end up being announced as a bumbling, drooling tool!!! Great find. Reminds me of the letter Vince Papale’s wife wrote him...

Are you sure Adam was a walk on? I thought he was offered a scholarship out of high school as some(gamecocks) thought he was part of a package deal to help us sign Charone Peak. Anyway, I would pick Hunter due to the magnitude of some of his clutch catches, but I liked them both and am very happy for Adam for how well he is doing in the NFL both as a receiver and return man. I believe Hunter will get drafted and do well due to his ability to get open and great hands.

If pushed into a corner I'd choose but rather not pick between them in public. Make me an NFL coach and make both available and we'll see.

It's sometimes difficult to do, but as much as I can, I try not to rank our boys against each other, and to give all members of the Clemson family equal love.
I may admit that player A is better than player B, but like your kids, you love them equally.

Adam's punt return

Against L'ville the first time the teams ever played was key to winning that game.

We didn't even score an offensive TD that game and still put up 23 points.

Renfrow. Granted he is a recent player but I think he made more memorable catches and of course won 2 Chips while he was here. Can’t go wrong with either though.

Humphries was a recruited scholarship athlete.
He was never a walk-on.

Thanks for the responses. I admit to being wrong about Humpries but he sure got the job done when it counted. Just like Hunter. Be great to see 13 on the Bucs next year!
