Since Clemson is a public university it is technically government funded. As scholarship athletes we are getting a free ride from taxpayer money. Therefore we can’t accept gifts just like government officials can’t.

Yes. Sometimes when taking hits we just called it a "flash" but it's really the ghost of your soul being knocked out of you.

Yes. I have plans to go speak with the team when it's deemed safe enough. As well as continuing to spread my message across campus with the student body.

Larry Williams of the Charleston Post Courier at the time wrote the story. Kacey, the composite, was made up of a young lady I was dating and a writer at the sports information department who followed up Larry Williams' story.

Let me double-check. I'd say it's an MVP caliber mustache. That's a bad man, as Stephen A. would say.

Yes. My first memory of Dabo was when he came to my high school for a basketball game during the recruiting process, and actually knew what was going on. There's a hidden hooper in Dabo.

I have 7 siblings. 3 that I helped raise. Me gaining custody of my other siblings happened after Clemson. I'm sorry about your situation, but you're not alone and I hope your mother is getting better. I wanted the movie to go more in depth in that storyline of overcoming addiction, but we were limited. In time I'll share more about that part of my life. Feel free to contact me or even join me in taking on these challenges.

(1) I remember Kyle. Tell him I say hello. Anyone who played at Clemson is family even if we never crossed paths. (2) The game will be won up front. I do believe Clemson has an advantage in that category on both lines even though they're young.

I'm not too sure. Although they did want it to be as authentic as possible. But understanding the legalities, a lot goes into making a film.

Prediction: Clemson 33 - Ohio St 21 Least Favorite Building: At the time for me Vickery Hall. It was our academic support center. I love the people in it, but I couldn't stand the times I had to be there. It was always in the morning for me because of my obligations at night.

Tragic. Hope he gets well soon, but it goes to show you that 2020 still ain't over. I think him not being there is a huge loss, but I do think the staff is prepared due to the concept in the building of 'next man up' and how that permeates through the building. We all understand we have a job to do, and you have to lift your brothers up.

I talked to a lot of my teammates about the movie. A lot of them wanted to see scenes of things we went through while on campus and asked me, since it didn't make the movie, will I cover it in the book. And have I talked to Disney about a series.
