Cornell Powell on transfer thoughts: "Nothing easy is worth having"

CLEMSON – Cornell Powell has more to prove. He has more to accomplish. And he wants to do it in the place he calls home.

The senior wide receiver out of Greenville, North Carolina, enters 2020 with 40 career receptions for 329 yards and three touchdowns over 577 career snaps in 42 games. He has also made a mark on special teams, posting seven kickoff returns for 182 yards prior to the 2020 campaign.

Powell played in 2016 and 2017 and played four games in 2018 before redshirting. Along the way, he’s played with and behind some of the best receivers in college football and many wondered if he would take his talents elsewhere for his senior season.
