Why Clemson and why now? Kevin Kelly says Clemson is simply different than the rest and a machine.
Kelly joined Clemson Football as its Director of Player Evaluation & Acquisition in February 2025 with more than 20 years of NFL experience as a proven talent evaluator. He most recently spent the last 12 seasons with the Chargers, serving as Senior Director of College Scouting across the 2013-23 seasons before being named Senior Scouting Executive in 2024.
In college football's changing landscape, Clemson wants Kelly to join with GM Jordan Sorrells and Director of Recruiting Ty Clements to build the best possible roster.
