Young players showing improvement up front

Two of Clemson’s young offensive linemen that stepped foot on campus a year ago look like totally different players now, in the eyes of fifth-year senior guard Matt Bockhorst.

Watching rising sophomores Mitchell Mayes and Paul Tchio in practice this spring, Bockhorst can clearly tell they have taken the next step in their development after joining the Tigers ahead of spring practice in 2020.

“The improvement that those guys have made from when they got here a year ago is incredible, and it’s great to see those guys starting to get ready to contribute, as we need,” Bockhorst said this week.
