  08/19/21 - RB Will ShipleyJr/2024, Clemson

  By the time Will Shipley sprinted 20 yards downfield with the handoff, he could have let up. He could have given way to his teammate, safety Jalyn Phillips, who was hovering beyond the 21st yard. Make a juke. Turn right. Or left. Or just stop. No, if the freshman running back from Weddington, N.C., has left an impression with Clemson players and coaches this fall camp, it's that he doesn't stop. Shipley went for that 21st yard, with full force, his shoulders dealing Phillips a glancing blow. It was a casual collision, both parties remaining on their feet. But it was very Shipley. Once they reoriented, Shipley turned around for a sprint back to the huddle, and Phillips saw him off with a firm slap on the backside.

The Tigers have become accustomed to this. In the offseason, when they were running hills, it was usually Shipley charging to the front of the pack, up there with cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. and receiver Frank Ladson. On the practice field, he's still zooming in one direction or another. "He's not like a typical freshman," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said. "He's just - wushhhh - locked in all the time. Everything. He's going to win every sprint. He's not a guy who is going to be respectful to everybody and say 'Maybe I shouldn't win this sprint.' He doesn't worry about anyone else. "He's going to win every sprint, and if you can't run with him, too bad. That's just his mindset. He's not a guy who is going to wait until his senior year to be a leader. He showed up here as a leader." - Charleston Post Courier
