For sake of Argument:

CU GOAT QB: TL or DW(Swinney)
CU GOAT WR: Sammy/DHop(Swinney)
CU GOAT Pass Catching TE: Leggett, Jake B(Swinney)
CU GOAT RB: ETN(Swinney)
CU GOAT O Tackle: Mitch Hyatt(Swinney)
Any other GOATS on O?

My question is, has there been anyone on defense that would be considered a Clemson GOAT?

Tackle
Was Wilkins(tackle or end) better than either of the Perry brothers or Chester McGlokton? I don't think so - not in college anyway. Was Big Dex one of the all time best at tackle? We've had so many good ones.

LB
I can't think of a single LB that I would take over 5 or 6 from the 80s. Levon Kirkland, etc. . . . to many to name.

DB
Again, I can't think of a DB that I would take over some from the 70s/80s. Donnell Woolford, Brain Dawkins, etc..


The closest I come is Isaiah Simmons. I'll take him on my CU all time team. I don't know if he's going to fit at LB or DB, but I think he's an all time best defender at CU.
