It would be understandable if Xavier Thomas arrived at Clemson with a bit of an ego.
The Florence native was a unanimous five-star recruit and was rated as the No. 3 overall player in the country for the class of 2018 by the 247Sports Composite rankings.
Thomas was being compared to Jadeveon Clowney before his junior year of high school, and just about every top program in the country was recruiting him.
But Thomas has been on campus at Clemson for about seven months after enrolling in January, and defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall recently said that he has not acted entitled at all.
