Arguably the biggest story of the offseason for Clemson football was the addition of Ian Schieffelin, a 6-foot-8 big man from Brad Brownell's hoops team.
Schieffelin just wrapped up his senior year with Clemson basketball and it looked like he was going to pursue a professional hoops career, but Dabo Swinney had other plans. Dabo had joked for years that he thought Schieffelin could play for him. He finally made it happen.
Whatever the pitch to Schieffelin was, it worked. He announced that he would be hanging up the sneakers and picking up a pair of cleats, joining the football team as a tight end.
