The Clemson Tigers entered the 2016 college football season as the No. 2 team in the nation, but they have fallen to No. 5 after limping to wins over Auburn and Troy to start the season.

As covered by ABC News, Deshaun Watson disclosed that he met with Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney on Monday morning and quarterbacks coach Brandon Streeter on Sunday night to discuss his efforts in improving both the on-field attitude and competitive determination of himself and his Tigers teammates.
Renfrow was one of Clemson’s top players in the school’s run to the national championship game a year ago. “No one wanting to talk to me”. So much media attention [wears] down on me, and I just really apologize to you guys and all the fans. Next year, who knows what’s going to happen?
This says a lot about Deshaun Watson. He’s completed 52.9 percent of his passes, down from last year’s 67.8, and his touchdown-to-interception ratio is now 4-to-3. You’re one of the best players in the nation.
“Yeah, I’m not Superman”.
For Watson, 20-2 as Clemson’s starter, the next game will be a mix of fun and execution. “This is probably my worst (win)”.
The sophomore pass-catcher suffered a broken bone in his right hand while making a touchdown grab during the Tigers’ closer-than-expected victory over Troy on Saturday, and the injury is expected to sideline Renfrow for around a month, Aaron Brenner of the Post and Courier (S.C.) reports. You live and learn and correct the mistakes.

“We’ve got to get back to basics and playing Clemson football”, he said. “Over the course of my lifetime and my experience of what I’ve been through on and off the field, it’s a blessing to have this opportunity to be here”. The former walk-on caught 33 passes for 492 yards and five touchdowns last season, including two scores in the loss to Alabama in the national championship game.
