CLEMSON – A new offensive coordinator, a lot of visitors, and beautiful weather highlighted the first practice of the spring.
New offensive coordinator Garrett Riley was front and center as the Tigers took to the practice field Monday afternoon. Riley, hired in early January, brings his Air Raid offense to Clemson. That brought one of the early visitors to campus as well.
Samford head coach Chris Hatcher, who has also had stops at Murray St., Georgia Southern, and Valdosta St., was on hand to watch Riley. He said he has a prior relationship with Riley because they run the same offense, and had made plans to spend spring break in Fort Worth to watch TCU.
