DJ Uiagalelei already making an impression on coaches and teammates

CLEMSON – Head coach Dabo Swinney was ushered into a corner of the indoor practice facility following Wednesday’s practice to meet with the media. The 20-minute session covered a variety of topics, but the real show was happening on the field behind Swinney’s shoulder.

Freshman quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, still bathed in sweat after sprinting at the end of practice, threw with wide receiver Justyn Ross, wide receiver Will Swinney, and any student manager who wanted to run a route.

The throws went to the left. They went to the right.
