Today's Features Clemson vs. Georgia October 6, 1990 5 Doug Brewster Clemson linebacker Doug Brewster, a preseason second-team All-America selection, had a change in lifestyle this summer. As Annabelle Vaughan tells us, it has certainly changed his outlook on life, but has not changed his performance on the field. 7 John Johnson Outside linebacker John Johnson has had an impact on Tiger football since he stepped on the Clemson campus. He is one of the team leaders of a senior class that has won 34 of 41 games. Annabelle Vaughan tells us about his ability to keep everyone loose. 49 Larry Beckman Clemson's offensive line coach Larry Beckman has spent many years coaching at the high school and collegiate levels, but as Sanford Rogers explains, Beckman probably will never return to the prep ranks and perhaps not for the reasons you would expect. 53 Richard Wilson Richard Wilson has had the opportunity to learn from some of the best coaches in the business. Now he puts all those qualities into coaching Clemson's young wide receivers, as Mickey Plyler elaborates. 55 Joe DeBerry Turn to page 55 and find out the answer to one of Tim Bourret's toughest trivia questions, "What Clemson athlete has known Ken Hatfield the longest?" 62 The Clemson Georgia Series Perhaps no series in America treated fans to such classic games in the decade of the 80's as the Clemson-Georgia series. Resident historian Sam Blackman reviews some of the games that have made this contest into one of the most fierce rivalries. 105 Donnie Heckel It has been 1 years since the Clemson wrestling program produced a national champion, but according to Gregg Prigerson, Tiger fans may just have another opportunity to cheer one on. 55 112 The Last Word Retired Sports Information Director Bob Bradley is well known for his humorous stones about The Legend, Frank Howard, but in today's Last Word, he takes a look at Georgia's equivalent Legend, Wally Butts.
