During his national signing day press conference, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney had high praise for talented all-around athlete Barrett Carter, one of the five-star prospects the Tigers signed on Wednesday when college football’s early signing period got underway.
Carter was labeled as a linebacker by all the major recruiting services, but while he is more than capable of manning that position, Clemson doesn’t plan to limit him exclusively to any one role as he possesses the versatility to play all over the field on defense.
“We’re going to use him in a versatile way,” Swinney said.
