Collins knows he has ‘big shoes to fill’ at Wide Receiver U

Joining a Clemson program that many consider to be “Wide Receiver U” is not something Dacari Collins takes lightly.

That label and Clemson’s tradition at the position had an impact on Collins’ thinking during the recruiting process and played a big role in why the former four-star prospect from Atlanta wanted to be a Tiger in the first place.

“It definitely took a great toll,” Collins said recently during a Clemson Football Instagram video. “It’s just a blessing to be here.”

Collins had a strong four-year career in the football-rich state of Georgia, with his reception and yardage totals increasing each season.
