Great story with an even better ending. And the fun is just beginning for him and his mom.

After reading this article I am an even bigger fan of Tee! Impressive story of an impressive young man.

Glad he wound up coming to Clemson, rather than Tennessee. I'm sure he's happy about that, too. I imagine the great atmosphere Dabo and his staff have created have been just the right fit for Tee, and what a great player he has been, too. Hope his future is bright on the field. I know it will be bright off the field.

Sad start to a story that turns out to be a great story. Had to be hard for his mother to stop the drugs, but she made a great decision to quit for her kids. Gotta love how Tee loves his Mom, stayed humble and hungry to make his Mother happy in the NFL like he did at Clemson. Thanks for sharing

No matter what happens with Tee in regard to the NFL, he is already a success solely based on the fact that he did not allow himself to succumb to the same things his mom fell victim to. Because he followed that path and played football for Dabo's program he beat the odds and is now much better prepared to make it at the next level. So many have failed where Tee succeeded.

Credit, both Tee and Dabo. Both are outstanding and very focussed in the right direction.

As I sit here with tears running down my cheeks, I am so proud of this young man. What so many of us take for granted, others really aspire to experience, and those who have that inner, mental strength and toughness and a wonderful lesson for all of us. Dabo just keeps on finding this type young man for us to see mature into something so much more than just a football player. So proud of guys like this and coaches like we have who make great men out of our team.
