Once again Clemson football leads college football on and off the field.
Saturday night as Clemson football took the field against the University of Virginia, fans took notice of the different nameplates that many of the players were wearing.
They had words such as “matters”, “love”, “peace”, “together”, and “equality”. Players had the choice to have any of these words in place of their last names and more than 70 percent of the 120 players on the roster chose to do just that.
