James Skalski and Baylon Spector have gotten plenty of attention during fall camp. Given their experience and their availability — neither one was during the spring — it’s easy to understand why.
To call Clemson’s veteran linebackers the leaders of the group would be an understatement. Sixth-year and fifth-year seniors, respectively, Skalski and Spector have a combined nine years of experience at the collegiate level and have gained the affectionate nickname, the Bruise Brothers, from head coach Dabo Swinney over that time.
It can be easy to forget there’s a third starter at the second level of the defense, too.
