Kevin Washington was watching a player he’s coached, trained and mentored.
At this point, Mauldin (S.C.) High School five-star Jeadyn Lukus has blossomed into a dominant, young cornerback. He’s already committed to Clemson and is one of the top cornerbacks in the 2022 recruiting class.
But we’ll get to that in a moment.
Washington received a phone call from Clemson cornerbacks coach Mike Reed.
It was in the middle of Mauldin’s 14-9 win over Spartanburg on Friday, Aug. 27. Reed wanted to check-in, to see how his young cornerback was faring in the debut game of his senior campaign.
