I always think of CJ as the best ever at Clemson. As I watched this video I realized I had forgotten just how amazing he was! Thank you CJ for not only coming to Clemson but for loving it here and telling the rest of the country how great it is to be a Tiger!

Thanks for sharing those great memories. Can you imagine CJ in this offense?

IMO, CJ Spiller is the best player Clemson has ever had

I've never seen one guy that's able to carry a team quite as well as CJ. A lot of our other famous players were usually surrounded by other talent around them (with the notable exception of Brian Dawkins). CJ had decent talent around him (like Jacoby Ford and Da'Quan Bowers), but that was nothing compared to the talent around Jeff Davis (Perry Tuttle, William Perry, Michael Dean Perry) and Tajh Boyd (Nuk Hopkins, Sammy Watkins, Andre Ellington).

The first play in that video was eye-opening.

Up until that snap, Spiller could have been all hype. Ten seconds later there was no doubt he was for real.

Unfortunately I was at the concessions when Spiller made that huge run. I saw the last part of it live on the jumbotron, but missed it in person. Kills me to this day.

The run vs GT at the 1:21 mark is a thing of beauty! Those two defenders never had a chance! LOL.

Man I miss that dude alot. His acceleration and ability to make a guy miss was unbelievable. Imo, he is undoubtedly the best player to suit up for Clemson. Plus not to mention what he did for this school when he was off the field and how much love he shows Clemson now is awesome. Makes u wonder what could of happened if he played chad morris's offense and had stable QB in tahj. Hopefully one day down the road when his NFL career is over he can come back and be a RB coach. We need this guy back on campus

I have a couple of thoughts -
Can we get C.J. to come coach special teams when he's done in the NFL?
How many runs did he have with Jacoby Ford blocking for him downfield? Speed is a wonderful thing!
Those of us who were blessed enough to see C. J. Spiller play at Clemson may never see anything like it again.

I make a point of watching a Spiller video at least once
Dec 24, 2013, 7:25 AM

every off-season, and usually more. He is quite simply art in motion. How I miss having him on the field, where literally every play you held your breath because he could break a big one.

Best athlete ever at Clemson, one of the best ever in CFB!

What a great young man also. What makes him special is his vision! He can see something develop on a play, and change gears in the blink of an eye with that incredible acceleration.
I loved watching him play at Clemson, anytime he had the ball you never knew what would happen which was exciting.

Absolute BS that he wasn't even a Heisman finalist. In my opinion, he should have won it hands down.
