CLEMSON – Clelin Ferrell knew he was coming back to Clemson, but wanted to have a little fun with head coach Dabo Swinney first.
The junior defensive end out of Virginia had a difficult decision to make after the Tigers’ loss to Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. Declare for the NFL Draft or return for another season at Clemson? Ferrell says he was torn for the majority of the process before finally deciding to return.
Once the decision was made, he called his head coach.
“I called Coach Swinney first,” Ferrell told TigerNet.
