Practice notes: Kicking competition is back-and-forth

CLEMSON – Competition battles are heating up along with the temperature.

The Tigers moved practice to Jervey Meadows on Wednesday, and the sweltering temperatures didn’t change the fact that spots on the depth chart are on the line, especially with a scrimmage looming Saturday.

Swinney said right guard Walker Parks – who missed all but two games last season – is still getting his feet under him.

“He's good. So far, so good. I think he's still gaining his confidence now that we've put the pads on and now. he's really having to truly anchor, truly anchor with his pass protection,” Swinney said.
