Five-star defensive, K.J. Henry of Clemmons, North Carolina participated in the Opening Regional camp in Charlotte, North Carolina this afternoon. Henry was spotted sporting Clemson gloves.

While this sort of thing is not out of the normal for recruits, Henry has been seen as a Clemson lean for sometime now. Yes it’s just a pair of gloves, however, it shows that Henry is not shy about showing his affinity for the Tigers.
