Being a Clemson Tiger means more to Wilkins than anything else he accomplished

Few players have come through Clemson and have accomplished the things Christian Wilkins did in his four years there.

The defensive lineman, who made being a football player and a Power Ranger cool, was a three-time First Team All-American. After his senior year, a season in which he decided to return to school instead of turning pro, he was named a unanimous All-American, just the fifth player in Clemson history to receiver such an honor.

Wilkins also won the Campbell Trophy in 2018, given to the nation’s best student athlete. It is affectionately known as the academic Heisman in college football.
