Monday Practice Insider: Jimmy Greenbeans throwing darts at linebackers

CLEMSON – Jimmy Greenbeans was on fire Monday.

Greenbeans, the alternate and quarterback-playing persona of defensive coordinator Brent Venables, made a brief appearance as the Tigers went through practice number four of the spring.

Venables was working with his linebackers in drills and had each player come out of the cones and then turn to face him. At a distance of seven yards, Venables/Greenbeans was letting the ball fly with extreme prejudice. And then, just when the players thought they might have the measure of ol’ Greenbeans, he would lob one up in the air.
