Freshmen Artavis Scott and Deshaun Watson along with senior Daniel Rodriguez were named to the 2014 All-ACC Academic football team Wednesday. It marked the first time Clemson had a pair of freshmen make the team.
Watson had a 4.0 GPA in the classroom in the fall to match his uniform number. He became the first Tiger quarterback to start at least one game and earn All-ACC Academic honors since 1984, when Mike Eppley accomplished the feat.
