Clemson defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall is pleased with the progression of one of the more senior players in his position group.
Senior defensive end Xavier Thomas has come along.
“I saw X the other day and I was so excited to see him, just see how his body’s transformed, I just had to go hug him,” Hall said during Clemson’s media outing on Tuesday. “He’s had a great summer. He’s working his tail off…I’m excited to see the focus that we need and I’m excited to see X out there and play.”
Thomas took to Twitter last month to announce that he was back down to 265 pounds.
