Clemson football and baseball received a huge boost when projected first round MLB Draft pick Will Taylor decided to turn down a lot of money to be a college athlete.
Baseball head coach Monte Lee sat down with The Clemson Insider on Friday and spoke highly of the incoming two-sport star.
First and foremost, Lee credited head football coach Dabo Swinney for making sure Taylor had an opportunity to succeed in both sports as a Tiger and working with the baseball program in the recruiting process.
“We have a football coach who wants to give young men an opportunity to maximize their career,” Lee said.
