For 23 years, Hugh Yaughn worked high school football camps at Clemson, including 21 straight from 1997-2017.
The guy everyone, including Dabo Swinney, called “Coach” also helped the football program on game days, driving all the way up from his home in Statesboro, Ga., to set up the fans and heaters to keep the Tigers cool or warm on the sideline. He did this for every game since 1993, until an illness caused him to miss the last six games of the 2017 season.
Unfortunately, there comes a time in every person’s life when they have to make a decision, though tough, when it is time to call it quits.
