CLEMSON- Tough love and God have shaped K’Von Wallace into the man, and football player, he is today.

Despite the tough love defensive coordinator Brent Venables is known to give his defense, Wallace doesn’t seem to mind and knows the love is there.

“Ya’ll see it, he’s been hard on us but he’s always been hard on us. Last year was my first year, but that’s just who he is,” Wallace said during spring practice. “He’s never satisfied and we’re not either. You take it and run with it.”

Despite all the love that is there, Wallace, and the rest of Clemson’s defense still knows it’s better to bite your tongue than to poke the bear.
