TOO many options in recent years, so I will restrict my response to players I saw before actually becoming a Clemson student. I will break more rules and not limit it to football. I was a kid back then, so easily impressed. Dan's was still in business.
1. Buddy Gore
2. Butch Zatezalo (Basketball)
3. Charlie Waters
4. Ray Yauger
5. Rusty Adkins (Baseball, way back when we chased foul balls towards Fike, home runs to left field hit Hwy 93)

Actually, Boyd should have been in there. Let us not forget how great he was and the difference he made on this program.
