Through his first 10 spring practices at Clemson, true freshman quarterback Chris Denson has certainly impressed his offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach, Garrett Riley.

With Clemson missing some of its more veteran offensive linemen this spring as they recover from offseason procedures, the young bucks are getting plenty of work. Redshirt freshmen Mason Wade and Ronan O’Connell took first-team reps on Monday, with true freshmen Brayden Jacobs, Gavin Blanchard, Rowan Byrne and Easton Ware working with the second group. […]

Garrett Riley wishes he had chosen to be a little more aggressive late in Clemson’s last two games. One of those was a loss to rival South Carolina, where the offense seemed to get a little conservative late in the second half. While the Tigers did rack up close to 200 yards of offense over […]
CLEMSON — Clemson pulled out a victory in Pittsburgh last weekend, but it didn’t come without its own struggles. While the Tigers earned multiple touchdowns in the first half of their matchup against the Panthers, the consistency of the offensive unit has been an issue in recent weeks.

Last season while sharing the running back duties with Will Shipley, fans were clamoring to see more of Phil Mafah in the Clemson backfield.
