Clemson Football Fall Camp: 5 Burning Questions

4. Who steps up and fills shoes from last year’s team?

Along the same lines as question No. 5, I want to see who will step up fill shoes at other positions.

Everyone realizes that Deshaun Watson is gone at quarterback, but Clemson football will also need to replace the likes of Artavis Scott, Wayne Gallman, Mike Williams, Jordan Leggett, Jay Guillermo, Carlos Watkins, Ben Boulware, and Cordrea Tankersley among others.

That’s a huge chunk of talent from last year’s team.

Coach Dabo Swinney has told everyone over and over again that the players behind these guys were good enough to play, but have just been waiting their turn.

Who will be the leading receivers? Will Hunter Renfrow turn into a guy that catches 70 passes? Will it be Deon Cain or Ray Ray McCloud? Maybe some of the new guys like Diondre Overton, Amari Rodgers, or Tee Higgins?

What about at tight end? Who steps in there?

I’d also like to see Tavien Feaster step in at running back and fill the shoes of Wayne Gallman.

Defensively, you have to replace a proven starter in Ben Boulware, but the Tigers have plenty of talent like Shaq Smith and Tre Lamar.

All in all, there are a ton of guys that need to step up and I want to see who those players are going to be.
