First, ditto on everything we have said and will continue to say ab Boyd and Watkins. Met Boyd this summer. Professional amazing representative of our team.
On Howard...watching him shred Auburn a couple years ago was great. I really wish the best for this kid and hope that he achieves his goals on the football field and after Clemson.
Funny story, I dated a girl from Alabama for a pretty good while and went to see her last December before Christmas. I left Alabama in my rental car (which was packed with all my guns, laptop, and every other personal possession I owned) to head to Clemson for my brother's graduation. Only problem...my mom told me I had better get a hair cut and shave my beard before I crossed the SC state line for graduation pictures. I googled barber shop and had missed the last one. The next barber shop was Lincoln Barber Shop in Lincoln, Alabama. Attached to the barber shop was a wing spot and a car detail spot. Being a little skeptical of a random barber shop off the interstate, I walked inside and there was a nice black gentleman on the phone wearing a Bama hat. I sat down and started chatting with him asking him about he natty game and told him i thought bama was going to take it to 'em. He then asked if i was a bama fan and i pointed at my Paw visor and he said "Thats right Clemson. You know...My first cousin plays running back for Clemson." I looked at him kind of funny and said who? He said "DJ Howard." We had a great talk and he was a great guy.
We have some good representatives across the board.
