Clemson 2021 early look: Offensive and defensive line
Clemson’s offensive line was tasked with replacing four starters from 2019. The results were mixed with some poor showings (e.g., Notre Dame in South Bend) and some good ones (e.g., Notre Dame in Charlotte). It’s arguably the area where Clemson needs to improve the most in 2021 and, with a lot of talent returning and an influx of top prospects, it may be poised to do just that. Full Story » |

Yeah, that's been well discussed. XT lost a year in 2019 because of scheme. Mascoll could have a breakout year. Got some freshman that may push for reps. At least provide quality depth later in year.
Surprisingly tre Williams and Capehart weren't mentioned. I look for them to provide quality backup from game 1. Both should push the 1's.

What happened to Tre Williams and Demonte Capehart? No mention, but they should be ready to play a much bigger role this year. They were highly ranked recruits.

Good point. They should help provide depth as well. I’m looking forward to see who steps up in that role.

IMHO best players on the 2021 team are:
1a) Brian Bresee 1b) Myles Murphy (pick your own order)
2) Justyn Ross
3) DJ
4) Tyler Davis
5) TBD
Lots more young talent and experienced leaders like Skalski & Turner ...
DL looks like the team strength pre-season. If OL develops quickly, 2021 will be another playoff run ...
