Jesus? Wizard of Oz? Nick Eason wants you to know he isn’t either one of those.
Eason, Clemson’s run game coordinator and defensive tackles coach, was not happy with the run defense last week at Florida State. The Tigers entered that game leading the ACC in rushing defense, with opponents averaging just 2.2 yards per carry and 63.7 overall. What happened? The Seminoles rushed for 206 yards and averaged 6.1 yards per carry.
For Eason, it all comes down to want-to.
“At the end of the day, it comes down to how bad you want it more than your opponent,” Eason told the media Monday.
