In Honor of Veteran's Day.

In honor of Veteran's Day. Here are two videos of a Clemson Player, who is also a war Veteran. Daniel Rodriguez, who was serving in Iraq when he decided he want to go back to college and be a football player.
 
This is the story of the brave soldier that decided he wanted to become a Tiger. Very inspirational story for anyone who hasn't heard it. All of the Tiger players and fans are very proud of this young man.


To all of you Veteran's, Thank you.




This is Daniel at the beginning of the Virgina Tech game, which was also Military appreciation day, as he is about to lead the Tigers down the hill. Which is a dream come true for him. These few seconds are some of the most exciting and emotional you will ever see on The Hill.











Neither of these videos belong or were made by me. Obviously.

Jae'Lon Oglesby

Jae'Lon Oglesby a high school junior from Daniel High school (just a few short miles from Clemson University), helped lead his team in a huge victory. In a recent title game Oglesby rushed for 380 yards, which contributed to his overall 2000 yards for the season. This 2014 commit still has one year to go before he will be running down the hill, but he has already expressed extreme interest in wearing orange every Saturday. This young man will be a great addition to the Tiger's offense, but unfortunately, as we have seen all season, the offense is not something Clemson struggles with. It's the defense.

Elijah Daniel Uncommitted ... maybe?

Elijah Daniel the top Defensive End recruit for Clemson, may have uncommitted from attending Clemson University. He sent out a Tweet on October 20, saying that Clemson "Did not feel right", and also that his family didn't think so tho either. When questioned about the tweet, (which is now deleted) Elijah says that his account was "hacked", but it is well known that Ole Miss was trying very hard to try and have him commit. If these two events are connected, only time will be able to tell.

Elijah Daniel Highlights

Elijah Daniel, a strong-side defensive end from Indiana, has been recruited to play for Clemson University. Daniel is just one of the numerous defensive players that Clemson has recruited for the next season. The 6-4, 250 lbs. recruit has been committed to Clemson since June, but some people still think that he might end up at LSU or Florida, but Clemson is doing everything in their power to keep him a Tiger.
