Jack Leggett out as Clemson Baseball Coach — Andrew Boardwine, RTR
Leggett has been the Head Coach at Clemson since 1994, a total of 22 seasons in which he led the Clemson baseball program to 21 NCAA Tournament appearances,
six College World Series berths, including two ACC Tournament Championships, and winning a total of
955 games in his career as a Tiger.
Obviously, it is a bitter-sweet day for most Clemson fans, even the ones who have been wanting him out for so long. Coach Leggett did so much for this program and he has such a competitive attitude that made him a Hall of Fame Coach.

Throwback Thursday: Clemson vs. LSU — Andrew Boardwine, RTR
On New Years’ Eve of 2012, I can clearly remember where I was. I was in Atlanta, Georgia about to watch my Clemson Tigers take on the LSU Tigers in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl.

Brian Dawkins: Greatest Living Eagle — Colby Lanham — Clemson Athletic Communications

And Eagles fans have not forgotten his deeds on the field for their franchise, as fans voted for Dawkins in a landslide on Phillyvoice.com as the “Greatest Living Eagle.”
