Since it's a thing apparently, Who is the first QB you actually remember?

For me it was Rodney Williams. Today we would have called him a game manager most likely, but he usually make solid passes, great reads and put us in a position to win. Anyone know what he's doing now btw? Ok, so what about y'all?

Our children watched Rodney so you have to go back to Jimmy Addison for me and a little of Thomas Ray for me both in the middle 60's.

Mark Fellers was also on the roster, who two years later would split time with Mike O'Cain during the 1974 "Undefeated Home Season". We finished that season 7-4, and they made a commemorative Pepsi bottle. If we did that today, people would probably be THROWING bottles. My, how times and expectations have changed.

NC got the Peach Bowl bid a week early over us, the bowls panicked and were afraid of missing out issuing bids with 3 games left. NC coach Bill Dooley made the comment that he expected to score a lot of points against Clemson, Red Parker replied in the media, "With the way they play defense he better bring an RC and a moonpie, because it's gonna be a long afternoon!" The result was Clemson 54 UNC 32. We then beat UVA and the Coots to go 7-4 but no bowl bid.

I remember Harvey White from radio and newspaper 1958-59. Specifically the Bluebonnet Bowl win over TCU. First one I saw play was Tommy Kendrick my freshman year in 1969.

I was at that UNC game as a student in my senior year. We were all mad as he!! that the last bowl bid went to them without waiting to see the outcome (btw, I thought it was the Sun Bowl, but I could be wrong). I think we were up on them 35-0 early in the second quarter. I think our players were mad, too.

That list would be led by Joe Willie Namath, of the New York Jets. Also, Lamonica with the Raiders, and Len Dawson with the Chiefs. This would have been around 1968.

All of us really appreciate Watson and Lawerence and their accomplishments but I’ve watched a lot of games with T Boyd and I feel as a college QB, he is right there with them. He just seem to get the most out of his teammates, at the right time.

I've read much on Homer Jordan and have seen after-the-fact footage, but don't remember him firsthand.

He was QB in the first Clemson game I ever remember watching (on TV). It was the 2010 game at Florida State. It was a great, competitive game, but unfortunately the Tigers came up a little short and lost on a long game-winning field goal right at the end of regulation. I would've been a 3rd-grader at the time, so I was 9 years old.
Tajh Boyd was the first one I remember more about, however, because that next season in 2011 was when I first started actually keeping up with the team some on my own, listening to games and shows on the radio, and taking more of an interest in Clemson football.

Either Mike O’Cain or Steve Fuller. I’m not sure which. When I was a student at Clemson I remember Mike Eppley and Rodney Williams.

Harvey White, Lowndes Shingler and Johnny Mack Goff were all on the same teams in late 50s when I became aware. Played in the Sugar Bowl against LSU and Billy Cannon

Jackie Calvert, Billy Hair and Don King. When Frank switched to the T formation, Don King was the First T quarterback. He was from Boys High School in Anderson and had won a state championship as a single-wing tailback in 1950. He was about 5 10 and at the most weighed 175.

Steve Fuller. He always kinda been the benchmark for comparison. Boyd, Watson, and Lawrence raised the bar!
Rodney Williams. The king of the wounded duck pass. He won a lot of ball games in spite of his lackluster arm!

Jimmie Leitner was QB for the Chester Cyclones when we won State (never done before or since).
He was a good friend who later served in VN.
He was a really good guy.

The first name that comes to mind is Ken Pengitore, although Steve Fuller is the first one I really followed.

i HAVE not seen Harvey White and Lowndes Shingler mentioned
Jul 7, 2024, 6:19 PM

Both big QB's from Greenwood. I think Harvey was good enough to go pro for awhile. However, Lowndes was almost as good but tragically committed suicide not long after graduation...

Jimmy Bell 1964 I remember the name, not sure I ever saw him play ( would have been 7)...he is still practicing family physician in Hartsville age 79 or 80. I definitely remember Tommy Kendrick 1969. Steve Fuller 1976-78 was a fraternity brother, outstanding QB and student ( valedictorian of Spartanburg High School).

Homer Jordan and the championship team of 1981, I was only 6 years old so no memory of that....but being from South Carolina it was either Clemson or the Coots and thankfully the good Lord made sure I went with those Tigers from Clemson....loved orange, loved Tigers....disliked chickens and disdain the combo of any red/black.
Speaking of that awful red/black combo colors, UGA to open the season is less than 2 months away....
Go Tigers!!
