Christian Bentancur on Competition, Groundhog Day, and Clemson's Tight End Room

Christian Bentancur is all about avoiding Groundhog Day. Not the movie—he actually has a unique connection to the film, as it was shot in his hometown of Woodstock, Illinois. "I didn't really know it was really filmed there for a while until I got to high school," he said. "It's cool to see like where I walk around every day is kind of where it was filmed."

Instead, the "Groundhog Day" Bentancur is looking to avoid is the one football players often experience after a redshirt season—repeating the same experience without a chance to contribute. He's been putting in work all offseason, with a mindset focused on making an impact.
