The South Carolina Football Hall of Fame presented Watson with the 2015 Collegiate Player of the Year Award at its annual banquet at the Hyatt Regency, completing the trifecta for Clemson players of the last three years. Vic Beasley won last year’s award and Tajh Boyd won in 2013.
Giving the banquet a certain flavor – Clemson greats Michael Dean Perry and Jeff Davis are a part of this year’s Hall of Fame Class and Davis quipped that, “Clemson is used to dominating.”
Beasley showed up just as the festivities started – Dabo Swinney cracked that Beasley showed up on Vic Beasley time – and presented the award to Watson.
