CLEMSON – Jay Guillermo understands how the fans feel about South Carolina because he feels the same way. Welcome to rivalry week.
Clemson’s junior starting center grew up a Clemson fan, and he fondly remembers the days when he would sit in his grandparents’ living room and watch Clemson face off against South Carolina, dreaming of the chance to play in the game.
Once the game was over, Guillermo would don his tattered and frayed James Davis jersey and take his younger cousin out in the yard for a game of 1-on-1 football.
