Clemson’s freshmen corners continue to make headlines

Since the spring, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has said over and over again how impressed he is with his secondary, in particular his young defensive backs.

Following Wednesday’s scrimmage at Death Valley, Swinney brought up the name of Malcolm Greene several times, and for good reason. The true freshman had two of the defense’s three interceptions.

“Malcolm Greene is probably as good as we’ve signed,” he said afterward. “The guy just gets it. He knows how to play the game, he’s fast, he’s physical, he understands technique, and a very multiple player – he could play anywhere, he really could.
