Guillermo getting accolades, giving encouragement

Who says offensive linemen never get the glory?

To be fair, in the Atlantic Coast Conference, only one lineman gets it every week. For the past two weeks, that lineman has been Clemson center Jay Guillermo, who has gotten to bask in the glow of accomplishment for a longer span of time than most of his brethren will ever get.

Guillermo’s performance made him the first back-to-back weekly award winner on the offensive line in almost a decade at Clemson. The honors are a seismic shift from the unknown of a few months ago, when Guillermo’s future with the Clemson football team was in doubt.
