From Michael Palmer to Dwayne Allen and Brandon Ford, tight end has been one of the most productive positions at Clemson under Dabo Swinney’s watch.
When Swinney was named full-time head coach in December of 2008, he brought former Clemson tight end Danny Pearman back to coach the position.
Pearman and Swinney first crossed paths at Alabama, where they served under Gene Stallings. After Pearman left Alabama, he’s made stops at Virginia Tech, UNC, Duke and Maryland.
Last month, Pearman broke down what he looks for in a tight end for Clemson’s hurry-up, no-huddle offense.
“I want a guy that really likes to play to win,” he said.
