High-impact freshmen could very well be the story of the 2020 Clemson football season after impressive debuts in the 37-13 Tigers win over Wake Forest Saturday.
Two of the Tigers’ five-star freshmen -- defensive end Myles Murphy and quarterback DJ Uiagalelei -- met with the media Monday for the first time on campus after seeing their first action, with Murphy leading the way defensively in team-highs with tackles (7), tackles for loss (3) and sacks (2).
Here are the quick highlights and notes, with stories to come later:
