in January then take balloons to celebrate his signing LOI to Clemson in February. He has come a long way since then. Very special family and great support from so many Clemson coaches.

That was just wonderful. Jake and his family seem like such wonderful people. Can't wait to see Jake coaching the team up in the Valley this fall. Go Tigers

A story of hope and inspiration. I am so glad I went to Clemson over SC. While SC was pulling scholarships the day before sigining day - Clemson was holding one for Jake. That - my friends is the difference between Clemson and SC. And that score will remain unbeatable forever.

I am so proud of Clemson for stepping up and doing what is right. I don't think I can express how proud I am of honoring his scholarship and doing what is right.
Too often we forget that football is just a game. I would trade an 0-200 streak for Jake to recover completely.

Just got word that Jake will be running down the hill with the team on Saturday. This will be a great moment for everyone. Y'all please get there early so we can cheer him on. What an inspiration for the first game. This is gonna make a great movie one day.
