Playing two sports at Clemson ‘a special opportunity’ for Taylor

Less than two weeks after receiving an offer from the Clemson football program on Sept. 15 during a FaceTime conversation with head coach Dabo Swinney, Irmo (S.C.) Dutch Fork receiver Will Taylor committed to Swinney and the Tigers on Monday before announcing his commitment Wednesday morning via Twitter.

“It’s a dream opportunity,” Taylor said to The Clemson Insider of having the chance to play for the Clemson football team. “I made the call to Coach Swinney on Monday night.”

Swinney was excited when Taylor informed him of his pledge, and Taylor can’t wait to suit up for Swinney’s squad starting next year.
