Jeff Scott has coached a list of stars during his tenure as Clemson’s wide receivers coach, including current NFL players Sammy Watkins, DeAndre Hopkins, Martavis Bryant, Adam Humphries, Jaron Brown and Charone Peake.
However, he hasn’t been around a freshman receiver quite like Amari Rodgers. At least not off the field, that is.
“Amari Rodgers is one of the most mature freshmen that I’ve had in my eight years at Clemson. Just super focused,” Scott said after Clemson’s practice on Saturday.
“You can learn a little bit about them in the recruiting process and all that, but you can’t find that out until they get here.
