CLEMSON – Tony Elliott believes the Clemson tight ends have a chance to be special as receivers. But he also believes they need to learn to fall in love with blocking in the running game if they want to be complete players.
Elliott took over as the tight ends coach in the spring, moving from the running backs to tight ends after Danny Pearman moved into another role and CJ Spiller was brought in to coach the running backs. It’s a transition that Elliott has enjoyed.
“It’s been fun for me personally, because I get back closer to the position that I played,” Elliott said last week.
