Clemson has sense of desperation at safety
When it comes to the two safety positions, Brent Venables feels, as coaches, there is a sense of desperation this spring as they try to find who is going to replace Tanner Muse, K’Von Wallace and Denzel Johnson.
Those three, along with Nolan Turner, helped form a safety net on the backend of Clemson’s defense that gave the coaching staff a sense of comfort the last two years. Now, three of those for are gone, and Turner will miss the entire spring after having shoulder surgery last month.
That leaves Venables and safeties coach Mickey Conn with a group of talented players, but with no real experience among them.
