Etienne ‘unofficially’ kick started his Heisman Campaign

There were many occasions during the spring and in preseason camp when Travis Etienne said he was not focused on any postseason accolades, including being a possible candidate in this year’s Heisman Trophy Race.

His goal is to be the best teammate he can be, while also becoming a better back.

Though he may not like all the attention from the media and the fans and all the talk about the Heisman Trophy, Etienne’s Heisman Campaign was unofficially released on Thursday at Death Valley. The Clemson running back opened the 2019 season with a career-high 205 yards and three touchdowns in leading the top-ranked Tigers to a 52-14 victory over Georgia Tech.
