Sunday Teleconference: Swinney brags on freshmen, comments on helmet stickers

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said that last year's No. 1 recruiting class is living up to its billing.

Several Clemson freshmen were on display during the Tigers' 37-13 victory Wake Forest Saturday night. Defensive end Myles Murphy had three tackles for loss and two sacks, while Bryan Bresee had half a sack and a blocked field goal.

"He is pretty special," Swinney said of Murphy on his Sunday night media teleconference. "He and Bresee are freshmen on paper only. They are smart and instinctive and coachable guys. But he (Murphy) has all of the attributes that you look for.
