While Dabo Swinney predicates his program on playing just about everybody, especially in a game that got out of hand early, it’s very rare to see a true freshman under center.
And yet, there was Will Taylor under center again on Saturday. A player beyond his years.
You would never know it by looking at him out on the field, but the dual-sport athlete didn’t move into Clemson until June 24.
Not even three months later and he’s a large part of what the Tigers want to do offensively going forward.
Taylor was able to play a larger role in Clemson’s 49-3 win over South Carolina State, even if his stat line may not suggest it.
