4. Travis Etienne

Travis Etienne is the first current Clemson football player to be put on this list, but there’s no doubt that it was well-earned. As a matter of fact, some may argue that he deserves to be as high as No. 2 on this list.

Etienne is already the all-time rushing leader in Clemson history, despite the fact that he has only played three seasons and still has one more year to go. Etienne is also currently the all-time leader in yards per carry and he leads the ACC in touchdowns.

There’s really no conference record that Etienne won’t break before it’s all said and done, and speaking of the conference: He’s been named the ACC Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons.

Etienne has an opportunity to etch his name in the history books in more way than one and there’s no doubt that he deserves to be highly regarded on this list.
