Into the Spotlight shines on Clemson football quarterback DJ Uiagalelei.
If you obtain an offer from Clemson football, you have more to offer than just the ability to play football. You come from a great family, are a great student, community leader, and excel on the field.
Very rarely do we get an inside look at most Clemson football players. While this special came out a couple of weeks ago, it is never too late to see what makes any of the young men we cheer on, tick.
They don’t crave the spotlight and while they may give us a sneak peek on social media sites like Twitter, Instagram, or Tik Tok, it is just a quick glance.
A few weeks ago, Amazon Prime gave us a look into what makes Clemson football quarterback DJ Uiagalelei special on and off the field and is worth the 30 minutes in front of your television. Matter of fact, when it ends you want more.
Clemson football fans have come to know and love DJ’s dad “Big Dave” as he is a fixture at all Clemson football games and loves to interact with the Clemson family on Twitter. We haven’t gotten to see his mom all that much and while we have seen DJ perform incredibly on the field, we don’t see much off the field.
After watching Into the Spotlight, you understand that football is the least of what makes DJ special.
The great players become great because they fell in love with the process and that is clear from DJ. He craves the ability to get better. No one has to tell him to go workout or go prepare, he does it on his own and he does it at a level that most adults cannot relate to, let alone high school athletes.
Into the Spotlight shows you just how humble this young man is as he takes the time to talk to and takes pictures with every single person that approaches him. As his mom said, they didn’t raise him to be a “jerk”.
In case you have ever wondered what Clemson football head coach means when he says they recruit kids from elite families, I would encourage you to watch this show as it shows why the Uiagalelei embodies exactly what the staff looks for from a five-star family.
