Dale Davis was a beast!!! He and Elden Campbell were a scary duo for other teams.

They were a lot of fun to watch for sure. Opposing fans probably not so much.

The scariest thing about that pic is it looks like it was Dale Davis on the free throw line!

I remember those Navy's. Navy was used in football too in the 80's in the uni stripes and trim. I always thought it was the influence of that Danny Ford Navy Windbreaker he wore on the sidelines. Pretty sure Navy was never an official school color. It was always Orange and Purple. Seems like Kenny Hatfield brought Purple back in a big way in the early 90's with purple jerseys.

And once CTB came to town he pretty much made it permanent.

As someone that thinks purple is a sissy color, I like the navy much better.

I like to wear it, but for sports uniforms, too many other teams wear orange and navy. Purple is pretty unique to pair with orange and it’s just another thing that makes Clemson special.

Dean Smith on Dale Davis

Asked about Davis and his defense, effort and rebounding prowess, Smith replied if he could have any player in the ACC not already on the Heels, it would be Dale Davis. A nice compliment.
