Dabo Swinney’s annual summer football camps are in full swing at Clemson University and with the camp attracting rising stars like coveted 2023 quarterback recruit Arch Manning amongst many other 4 and 5-star recruits across the country, many wonder what makes Clemson’s camp so special.
For parent and Clemson Alumni Robert McCardle, whose son, Trey, is a 2022 QB recruit from AC Flora High School, the difference is in the training-style sessions that Clemson focuses on rather than the usual combine-style camps put on by other universities.
“The facilities of course are phenomenal, but you go to lots of these camps, and they do 40 [meter] times, height, and weight and all the different stuff and it takes up half the time of the camp,” McCardle told TCI.
