Looking back on his redshirt season in 2017, Baylon Spector believes he benefited from it.
The freshman linebacker was able to take a step back and get better in his first year as a Tiger.
“It was good,” Spector told The Clemson Insider recently. “It was a bunch of learning and getting to know the system. But redshirting, you just gain a lot of knowledge, know the system, learn the positions and get stronger.
“It was a good learning experience. Just being able to watch and learn from the sidelines, it’s a big difference.”
Spector enrolled early last January and arrived on campus at around 226 pounds.
