New Story: App St. linebacker thanks Watson for support during tragedy

App St. linebacker thanks Watson for support during tragedy

Deshaun Watson will look across the line of scrimmage Saturday and see a familiar face, and while both players will think about football for 60 minutes, the postgame hug will be about more than sportsmanship. Full Story »

DW4= Class Act. Defines what a Clemson man should be.

I hope other young men see him leading by example. He's such a great role model. He's exactly what college sports needs.

Agreed, I really liked how genuine it was as well. There are a lot of things that players/celebs do as a PR stunt, but you could really tell he was sincere.

He is a special young man...we lift his friend up in prayer for the loss of his child.

Insight into Watsons Game


Sep 9, 2015, 12:22 PM

What actually goes through a defenders head while stacking up against DW4? This is how I see it going down...

First you need to analyze what DW4 is great at in each given situation. After reviewing your list in your head, you realize that it is too long to go through on the fly...

OK, lets make a new list eliminating what this "kid" can't do...

...

...

Crap, we're screwed!

Defenders new game strategy: Do everything in my power to not be "that guy" in DW4's highlight reel.

Very tough losing a child...

condolences to the Stringers.....good that Deshaun can see beyond the game that his friend is hurting

Both Devan Stringer and Deshaun Watson are why those of us who donate to our respective booster clubs do so ... student-athletes who are just plain good folks. Would that all athletes could see the broader picture as these two do.

Very true!***

Thanks for coming on here! We always welcome our game opponents to post. For me, I am truly sorry that Devan and his Family have to deal with this tragedy.

As I posted earlier this week, I will wear something Black and Gold with Noelle Marie's initials on me--NMS. Just a reminder that there ARE more important things than just a football game.

Have a great time in Tigertown!!!!

Thanks! We'll be tailgating before and after the game with dear friends who bleed orange. I'm looking forward to all that is good about rivalries and football and family and college ... all at the same time.

Thanks, too, for the kind thoughts for Devan and his family. I have two healthy grandchildren and cannot imagine the sort of pain he's in.

Peace and grace to Devan and his family. We all should be proud of these two special young men.
