CLEMSON — Sometime players come along that are “plug and play” at the college level.
Deshaun Watson or Sammy Watkins arrived at Clemson ready to go and needed little help in reaching their potential. There have been others.
But more often than not, players need a little help adjusting to their new life — where they are no longer the biggest fish on campus but are merely one of 85 guys trying to earn a spot on the field.
And sometime, there are players like Clemson wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud in need of the head coach getting in their “grits” to help them reach their potential.
