Barbara Streisand, Kris Kristofferson, and Gary Busey. You probably didn’t think you’d read a Clemson sports article that led off with those three names did ya?
But, they played the lead roles in the 1976 version of the movie A Star is Born. I’m not going to lie, I’ve never seen it. Couldn’t tell you what it’s about. However, the title is catchy, and when I googled it that’s what popped up.
Obviously, this isn’t a film review website, so I want to talk about three particular players on this year’s Clemson football team that has never played a down of college football, yet the hype surrounding them is immense, and over the next few months you’ll get to watch first hand how A Star is Born.
