Jeff Scott takes pride in Clemson’s wide receiver group and its identity as ‘Wide Receiver U.’
Scott took over duties coaching wide receivers when Dabo Swinney became the Tigers’ interim head coach in 2008. Now in his 11th season coaching the wide receivers, Scott has seen several NFL receivers develop under his watch including Deandre Hopkins, Sammy Watkins, Martavis Bryant, Mike Williams and a few others competing for spots on NFL rosters this summer.
This year the wide receiver unit has the potential to be the deepest it has been at Clemson in a long time with talented freshman Justyn Ross and Derion Kendrick, sophomores Amari Rogers and Tee Higgins, and veterans in Hunter Renfrow and Diondre Overton.
