Clemson receiver Hunter Renfrow won the Burlsworth Trophy on Monday as college football's best player to begin his career as a walk-on.
Renfrow has caught 43 passes for 472 yards and a touchdown this season for the No. 2 Tigers (13-0), who will play Notre Dame in the Cotton Bowl on Dec. 29 in one of two national semifinal games.
Renfrow, a fifth-year senior who only scholarship offers from Football Championship Subdivision schools coming out of high school, has 180 career receptions for 2,061 yards and 15 touchdowns in his college career. He caught the game-winning touchdown with one second remaining in Clemson's 35-31 win over Alabama in the national championship game two seasons ago.
