He hung around all 4 years, got better every year and quietly became a Clemson legend.
Will Taylor is a true Clemson man so I definitely hold him in high regard. Really like Knaak a lot too.

Started following the team in the spring of my freshman year which was Jack's second to last season. So it's mostly guys from the Monte Lee era.
Pat Krall - Crafty, old school guy who I don't think even touched the 90s, but could flat get outs. An absolute cheat code coming in in long relief in 2016. Reed Rohlman (RIP) - Just could flat hit the ball, not much power but so steady near the top of the lineup. Jordan Greene - Idk why, maybe because he was small, good defensively and could play multiple positions, with surprising pop at times for a guy who was about 5'7" Ryan Ammons - always seemed so reliable at the back of the bullpen Matthew Crownover - Another guy who didn't throw that hard but was so dependable his sophomore and junior years.

Gotta go Jimmy Obertop here, followed by Cam

Jimmy has a style to him, Mark McGwire sorta, but with a bit more flare but not too much. Cam has a bit too much flash for my liking, but darn it I do love his competitive spirit...sometimes you have to take the bad, with the good and Cam has the talent to be an all time great Clemson Tiger.
Cam has had a solid season for sure, but next year I expect an improvement that puts in the .360 batting average range, 15ish homers, 60ish RBI. I have worries based on having enough power around him because he is so good that he could start to press to hit more homers which usually hurts a player because they are switching their true style to try and do too much.

Cams at bat against Boston college is exactly what I expect to see from Cam. He fouled off SEVERAL tough pitches and finally the pitcher made a mistake that cam didn't miss. He wasn't trying to hit a homer, but he was dialed in and just mashed it. I'd say his "problem" if you can call it that, is that he is pressing a bit, but he's not trying to hit Homer's. He just wants to HIT. sometimes when he walks you can tell he is frustrated cause that young man wants to HIT THE BALL!

he literally looked pissed if pitcher does not throw him strikes lol. It is funny to watch but you can tell the guy just wants to hit the ball...but for the most part he will take a walk but not at all happy about it

Jack has been a pleasant surprise this year since Taylor went down. I'm at the point now where I'm thinking if you even put Taylor back out there this year. I say let him get healthy and if you absolutely have to, you can get him some pinch hitting or baserunning opportunities

Cam is fun to watch succeed but not always a fan of his cockiness. Sometimes it’s too much and that’s what kept me from voting for him. Those hartsville kids are just different

He’s had his ups and downs as a true freshman in the field and at bat, but he’s battling and improving and he makes the smart play that a lot of guys just don’t think about. If he stays healthy he’s gonna be a team leader for the next couple of years.
