ARLINGTON, Texas — If you were to construct a quarterback from scratch, he would look something like this. He would stand 6’6” and weigh 215 pounds with ample room to grow and mature. He would showcase a silky but economical throwing motion powered by a golden right shoulder. And sure, to cap it all off, he would have long, glossy brown hair dangling below his helmet.
Somehow, Trevor Lawrence has done the remarkable in his first year at Clemson. He has lived up to and surpassed even the wildest expectations that were bestowed upon him since he arrived.
