CLEMSON — True freshman linebacker Sammy Brown is a testament to the strength of Clemson’s recruiting.
Brown has 19 tackles already this season and leads the team in tackles for loss with 3.5. He also recorded his first pass breakup in the Tigers’ most recent win against NC State.
Despite his fast performance, he admits to having some rookie struggles.
“There is definitely a difference between practice speed and game speed. I feel like I can get it all through the week and feel pretty good about it,” Brown said. “Then you get thrown in there on Saturday, and it’s like, ‘Whoa, that’s a lot faster than it was in practice.
