Things have come full circle for Clemson’s Ray-Ray McCloud. Well, sort of.
When he was in high school, the former five-star recruit from Tampa, Fla., was seen as a cornerback prospect by many schools. McCloud was recruited and offered by Clemson as a cornerback, but of course spent the first two years of his career at wide receiver.
Now, McCloud is working at cornerback again on a part-time basis in fall camp.
McCloud said he had a conversation with Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney over the offseason about potentially playing some corner.
“I was like if you need help on defense, if you ever need me, you can use me on defense and just use me at practice to learn the system,” McCloud recalled after Clemson’s practice on Tuesday.
