College Football Hall of Famer and new Clemson running backs coach C.J. Spiller has been impressed by what he’s seen from the Tigers’ two freshmen running backs – Will Shipley and Phil Mafah – thus far in spring practice.
Spiller understands that the pair of talented newcomers have a lot to learn, and there will be some growing pains along the way.
But when he watches and coaches Shipley and Mafah, Spiller sees flashbacks of himself and James Davis, who are still known as the greatest duo of running backs in Clemson history.
