Diondre Overton ignores transfer portal, has career day against Boston College

CLEMSON – Diondre Overton had chances to enter the transfer portal and maybe find a new home with less competition at the wide receiver spot, but decided to follow his original path. It worked out in a big way Saturday night.

Overton entered Saturday’s Homecoming contest with four career touchdown receptions but tallied three (for 119 yards) in the Tigers’ dominant 59-7 victory over the Eagles

His teammates and coaches were happy to see the North Carolina native have some success.

“I’m really happy for Diondre Overton. I think that was awesome for him to have three touchdowns, and he’s a guy that has worked extremely hard,” wide receivers coach Jeff Scott said.
