CLEMSON – The leading tackler on the Clemson defense last week at Virginia has a last name familiar to Clemson fans, and the way J.D. Davis threw his body around the field with reckless abandon was reminiscent of the way Jeff Davis played.

Like father, like son. Athletic ability and football savvy, but also great citizens off the field. It’s the Davis way, and head coach Dabo Swinney earlier this week defended his decision to give J.D. and his brother Judah scholarships, saying that the twins didn’t deserve the comments made about them over the past few years.
