Brian Dawkins, Jr. will follow in his father’s footsteps and play football at Clemson, but at the end of the day he wants to make his own name on and off the playing field.
The Littleton (CO) Valor Christian cornerback – and son of former Clemson great and NFL Pro Bowler Brian Dawkins – plans to attend Clemson as part of the 2016 recruiting class after spending a year in prep school.
The younger Dawkins told TigerNet this week that while playing at his father’s alma mater certainly factored into his decision, he saw Clemson as a place that he could grow and mature as a football player and a man.
