True freshman Joe Craig scored his first touchdown in Death Valley in Saturday’s scrimmage. The former Gaffney speedster is learning more every day.

Joe credits his older teammates and coach Scott for his development. Craig can see the progress, but knows he has a lot to learn.

Comfort with the offense is growing for Craig who played in a spread offense at Gaffney. With the offense looking for speed, Craig hopes that he can help fill that void in the future.

Watch TheClemsonInsider.com’s one-on-one interview with Joe after Monday’s practice.
