Outside of the running back position, where Clemson must find a replacement for Travis Etienne, who will start at center is the Tigers’ next biggest question.
Last year’s starter, Cade Stewart, decided to move on from college football and elected not to use the extra year of eligibility the NCAA granted for student-athletes this past fall due to the pandemic. So, for the third straight year, Clemson will be looking for a new center.
Logically, it might seem redshirt sophomore Mason Trotter will move up and assume that spot or reserve center Hunter Rayburn.
