10/17/20 - OLB Baylon Spector, rSr/2022, Clemson

Baylon Spector was already a star on his high school team as a sophomore, playing both ways while helping Calhoun High (Ga.) to an undefeated season and a state title. But heading into his junior year in the summer of 2015, Spector was still searching for someone to give him an opportunity to play college football somewhere. The versatile playmaker, whose father Robbie played receiver at Clemson in the early 1990s, was traveling around to different camps throughout the southeast hoping to catch the attention of a coaching staff. When he arrived at Clemson for a three-day camp, he had zero scholarship offers. He left with the offer he desired most. "I remember just hoping and praying that I could get an offer from somewhere," Spector recalled.

That three-day camp ended up shaping Spector's football career and his future. Spector played all over the field for Hal Lamb at Calhoun High, spending time at quarterback, running back, cornerback and safety. On the first day of Clemson's camp in 2015, he was working out with the safeties for defensive backs coach Mike Reed before Tigers defensive coordinator Brent Venables suggested Spector give linebacker a try. It didn't take Spector long to make an impression on Venables. "Venables came over to Coach (Dabo) Swinney and said, 'Hey, I don't know who this long-haired kid is over here, but he can play,' " Robbie Spector said. "That sort of hammered home the fact that he's got legitimate opportunity, and if they're seeing something with him the first day of drills, then this could very well become a reality for us." - The State
