Star sophomore defensive end T.J. Parker made a huge announcement on X, confirming that he will indeed be returning to Clemson University for the 2025 season. This decision has brought much excitement among fans, as Parker has quickly established himself as one of the standout players on the Tigers' roster. During the 2024 season, he delivered an impressive performance, accumulating a total of 57 tackles, which included 34 solo tackles and 11 sacks. Parker also did his part in creating turnover opportunities, forcing six fumbles over the course of the season. His ability to penetrate opposing offensive lines and disrupt plays was evident throughout the season. Parker was named Second-Team All-ACC for the 2024 season. I myself thought for sure that he deserved First-Team, but I digress lol.
