Glassboro grad Corey Clement overcame a 'negative year' at Wisconsin and awaits the NFL draft

On Nov. 3, 2012, Corey Clement celebrated his 18th birthday in the Glassboro High School gymnasium and announced he would play college football at Wisconsin.

Clement had already rushed for the most yards in South Jersey history - the record of 6,245 still stands - and he said that day that he chose the Badgers over Notre Dame because he wanted to be "that guy," not "just another guy."

It took Clement four years to emerge as a top running back, waiting until his senior season to have the type of season that sparkles on draft profiles.
