Clemson Tigers linebacker Barrett Carter recently opened up about his experiences during his first season as a starter for the Clemson Tigers in 2022. While Carter acknowledges that not everything went as he had hoped, he still has a healthy view of the season.

"“We did a lot of great things this season. Eleven wins, ACC Champions, that is a great season. It definitely did not end the way we wanted it to, but we did a lot of great things this season. There is a lot to be proud of.”"

As noted by Will Vandervort of All Clemson Tigers, it’s reassuring to hear Carter views things as the glass half full and not half empty. He has a good head on his shoulders and will be counted on for leadership on the field for the Tigers this season.

Matt Miller of ESPN recently debated between top candidates at every position to choose who would be at the top of his list for the 2024 NFL Draft. His choice for linebacker came down to two Clemson players: Carter and Jeremiah Trotter, Jr. Miller ultimately selected Carter, but the fact that both candidates will line up for the Tigers this fall is strong.

Clemson Baseball’s Cam Cannarella was named to D1Baseball’s Freshman All-America First Team. Other players named included Ethan Petry from South Carolina, Caden Bodine from Coastal Carolina, Dominic Fritton from NC State, and James Tallon from Duke.

Death Valley hasn’t hosted a major concert since 1999, but that could change soon. Athletic Director Graham Neff told The State that opening Memorial Stadium for more than seven football games in the fall and a spring game is in the plans, and some of the current renovations will help put the stadium in a position to attract big concerts.
