New Story: Freshman Report: Ray-Ray McCloud and Garrett Williams early standouts

Freshman Report: Ray-Ray McCloud and Garrett Williams early standouts

Clemson’s highly-touted freshmen are getting a long look during the early days of fall camp, and it comes as no surprise to offensive coordinator Jeff Scott that wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud and tight end Garrett Williams are leading the way. Full Story »

Maybe the competition from Williams will light a fire

under our veteran TE's. If not, he'll earn some PT.

I remember watching some of Ray Rays 7 on 7 when he was defending a 4 star TE and absolutely abused the kid all day. He was not only jamming him, but getting him off his feet, and he was very physical in coverage. he sounds like he will be an amazing player out of the box.

I hope they put McCloud back there fielding punts . He is a one-miss and gone kind of guy in the open field .

Who would you play? A freshman getting high praise for his

talent and work ethic, or a guy nicknamed "Lazy Legette"? I'd go the freshman route. 3-4 years into this and we've yet to see Jordan's full potential.

I'm confused

Every article about THE standout receiver in fall camp has a different receiver. Hopefully it just mean they are all awesome.

well, this one is the freshman report.

If Jeff Scott says that a wr is showing out I would say he


Aug 14, 2015, 7:56 PM

Means it. I think we all expected Cain to be the man but when Ray Rays dad said his son was dynamic and could run or catch and he would contribute right away I expected him to do just that. Ray Rays dad has been running camps for a while so I knew we could expect him to know the ends and outs of the game. Being his size I thought he might struggle with blocking.

I hope Ray Ray and Garrett both contribute. I think we all know TE has been a position that we need guys to step up. I hope we start Garrett if he is the best all around TE. We have needed somebody to step up and take the TE position.

I hope and believe Cain will step up too. I can't see us redshirting him.

I can't wait to see how our freshmen play out.

Go Tigers!

Playing against Alex. Mac & Cory Tank., He'll be just find. This will only make him shine against weaker competition. TO BE THE BEST. YOU HAVE TO BEAT THE BEST. STRONGER COMPETITION LEADS TO A STRONGER ATHLETE MOST OF THE TIME. PS:Keep Grinding CAIN, It will only make your GAME BETTER.

Based on my observations, Swinney is a little hesitant...


Aug 14, 2015, 9:40 PM

To play freshmen. He tends to give priority to less talented players. Like Cole Stoudt over Watson. Not complaining... just sayin'

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

your observations are dead wrong


Aug 14, 2015, 10:40 PM

so I wouldn't worry about it. As deep as we were last year at WR, artavis scott played in the first game against UGa as a true freshman

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Point -plus this year 2 warm up games to get freshman ready.***

You're dead wrong Neal


Aug 15, 2015, 8:37 AM [ in reply to your observations are dead wrong ]

Tiger Tim didn't say Dabo WOULDN'T play freshman, he said he was hesitant to play freshman. I think that characterization is fair and accurate. We all know Dabo will play freshman, but he is hesitant to do it and rightly so. That being said, I would have preferred to see more playing time from one player his freshman year - D. Watson (particularly in the UGA game), but I believe the coaches know way more about the intangibles of "readiness" than we do reading reports on line.

CJ Fuller, Chris Register, Adam Choice, Kurt Fleming...I'm with Neal. Whoever gives us the best chance to win the game.

How can you say that when Sammy Watkins, Mackenzie Alexander, and Artavis Scott AND Deshaun Watson all started as freshmen???

Walt Duptula's opinion is that if there is equal talent, the underclassmen should get the start. Right or wrong, Swinney seems to give priority to the upperclassmen when there is a doubt. Maybe Swinney views that as faithfulness to the older players. Not sure.
