After welcoming 15 midyear enrollees to the fold in spring practice, Clemson’s coaching staff is getting its first look at several more newcomers in fall camp, specifically the remaining eight members of the Tigers’ 2020 signing class that enrolled this summer.
Following Clemson’s first practice of camp Thursday, head coach Dabo Swinney addressed the media and was asked about a couple of the newcomers including Demarkcus Bowman, a five-star running back from Lakeland, Fla., who has drawn comparisons from Swinney to former Clemson great C.J. Spiller.
Swinney has raved about Bowman’s explosiveness, track speed, playmaking ability and ball skills, and said he looked “as advertised” on the first day of camp.
