After years of waiting, Michael Dean Perry will finally be inducted into the Ring of Honor at Memorial Stadium. This is a well-deserved honor for Perry, who is arguably the greatest defensive tackle Clemson has ever had.
Now, I know the newbies will not agree with me and that is okay. They, more than likely, will pick Christian Wilkins and that is a good choice, too. I understand recency bias as well as anyone.
And I get it. Wilkins was unbelievable and was one of the most athletic defensive linemen I ever saw play at Clemson, and that is counting Perry’s brother, William “The Refrigerator” Perry.
