phughes+FollowClemson shakes up transfer portal strategyClemson is making some serious moves in the transfer portal this year, and it’s a real shift from what we’re used to seeing.

On defense, they’re targeting experienced players like Devan Thompkins and Lyrik Rawls to fill big gaps left by NFL departures and transfers. This new focus on seasoned, ready-to-play athletes could change the entire vibe of the 2026 season. What do you think about Clemson’s new approach? #Sports #Football #Clemson40Share
