Turner steals the show at Clemson’s pro day

Nolan Turner was a notable omission from the list of Clemson players invited to the NFL scouting combine earlier this year, but Baylon Spector wasn’t all that worried about his former teammate’s ability to showcase his skill set for the next level.

Spector knew the Tigers’ veteran safety would get his shot during Clemson’s pro day Thursday. And after training alongside Turner in Florida for the past couple of months, Spector knew what was coming even if it came as a surprise to nearly everybody else.

“A lot of people were asking me, ‘What do you think Nolan’s going to run?’” said Spector, the former Clemson linebacker who also participated in the event. “I was like, ‘He’s going to blaze.’ And he did. So it wasn’t surprising.”

With scouts and coaches representing all 32 NFL teams packed inside Clemson’s indoor practice facility, Turner stole the show. He had the highest vertical jump among the participants at 37 ½ inches. His broad jump of 10 feet, 2 inches tied Spector and tight end Braden Galloway for the longest of the day.

And when Turner ran his first 40-yard dash in 4.47 seconds, audible gasps permeated the facility. Turner bested that a few minutes later with a 4.46 on his second attempt. None of the other participants, which included another defensive back (Mario Goodrich), a receiver (Justyn Ross) and a running back (Darien Rencher), ran faster than 4.60.

“I was just excited to get out here really and, at the end of the day, come out here and perform,” Turner said. “Been training for this day and this moment for a while now. It was good to come here and perform well and up to my expectations and hit a lot of my numbers and goals I was trying to hit.”

Turner spent six seasons as part of Clemsons’ program, the last two as a full-time starter on the back end of the defense. A two-time captain and All-American in 2020, Turner finished his career with 259 tackles and seven interceptions in 65 games, the fourth-most played in a career in program history.

He finished fourth on the team with 65 tackles last season, but it wasn’t enough to earn an invite to the scouting combine in Indianapolis last month. That didn’t come as much of a surprise to Turner considering foot and hamstring injuries limited him to 10 games and cut into his production.

“I was a little banged up and probably didn’t have the year I thought I would have statistically,” Turner said.

Turner wasn’t completely shut out of postseason showcase opportunities. He participated last month in the East-West Shrine Game, where he got the chance to meet NFL personnel and interview with some of them. Turner said he’s had conversations with other teams since, most of which told him they wanted to see more top-end speed and explosiveness from Turner as well as a clean bill of health.

That prompted Turner to travel to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to train at XPE Sports, an athlete training program run in part by fellow Clemson alum Tony Villani. Turner’s objective was to improve in those specific areas.

“Training for this stuff, it’s a lot of the combine drills and touching up on position work,” Turner said. “I was putting a big emphasis on speed and explosiveness. Those were kind of the things I thought I needed to work on a lot. That’s why I went down and trained with those guys, and they did a really good job. Definitely got out of it what I wanted to.”

With the numbers he put up Thursday, Turner said he believes he’s put himself in position to be taken once the NFL Draft begins April 28.

“I came out here and proved I was athletic enough,” Turner said. “I’ve got the tape. At the end of the day, I think I have the speed and athleticism to play at the next level.”

Clemson coaches ‘pumped’ about new WR signee, brother of former Tiger

While he’s the brother of a former Clemson standout safety, Cole Turner wasn’t on the Tigers’ radar.

Dabo Swinney has known Turner for a long time, but he was primarily a basketball player. He didn’t play football. By the time Vestavia Hills got him to join the football team, the pandemic had rolled around. It would eventually play a factor in his recruitment.

Turner’s grandfather reached out to Clemson’s head coach and told him that he might want to watch the three-star receiver out of Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School. He obliged and was in contact with the younger Turner brother in November, telling him that Clemson wanted to keep him under the radar for the time being.

“I knew if people watched his tape, he was gonna get a lot of opportunities,” Swinney said during his National Signing Day press conference Wednesday. “And, that’s kind of what happened. He had a lot of people from Notre Dame to other schools reaching out to him as his name got out there and people started watching him.”

The rest is history.

The Tigers were able to seal his verbal pledge right after he took his official visit and he later put pen to paper and officially became a Clemson signee earlier this week. Swinney knows that Clemson was fortunate to be able to get a prospect like Turner this late in the game.

“It’s just amazing, to be honest with you, how that all came about,” Swinney said. “All I can tell you is that’s kind of a God thing because that’s kind of how it happened for Nolan because we weren’t recruiting Nolan.”

This past season put Cole on the map. He was named first-team All-South Metro as an athlete after recording 42 catches for 581 yards and seven touchdowns. He averaged 19.5 yards per punt return and 34.5 yards per kickoff returning, finishing his senior season with 1,160 all-purpose yards.

“We’re pumped about him,” Grisham said during Clemson’s National Signing Day show on Wednesday. “You watch his film and you see why we want him. It’s not just because he’s Nolan’s brother. That’s what people are gonna say. He’s a phenomenal receiver that’s gonna be able to continue to grow and develop.”

The minute you turn on the tape, you realize that Cole is more than just Nolan Turner’s brother. Sure, he’s a legacy recruit, but you’d be selling him short by pigeonholing him to that moniker. He’s a legitimate prospect.

While it may kill his older brother just a bit to hear this, Cole is a faster, bigger athlete than Nolan was coming out of Vestavia Hills. According to Swinney, Cole is twitchy, long, has great ball skills and is a big-time athlete. At the same time, he’s also a big-time basketball player.

Just like Nolan, Clemson plans on “throwing his butt in the weight room for a year,” according to Swinney.

“Man, just watching his tape, you can quickly see that he has a great skill set,” Grisham said via Turner’s official Clemson bio. “He’s 6-2, 180-pounds with more growing to go. “He’s a guy that’s always played basketball his entire life, but what you see is not near the finished product that you have in Cole Turner.”

“He’s got great speed, great length and so as an outside receiver, he can run past you and he can finish those 50/50 balls down the field. What I love most is that he’s tough, he’s gritty. He can return kickoffs and punts. He’s great with the ball in his hands. We’re thrilled to have him join our squad this summer and get rolling with us.”

Coach Speak: Clemson ‘getting a steal’ in new WR signee

Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School three-star wide receiver Cole Turner officially signed with Clemson on Wedneday. Cole, of course, is the younger brother of longtimeC lemson safety Nolan Turner, who just finished up his final season of eligibility …

Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School three-star wide receiver Cole Turner officially signed with Clemson on Wedneday. Cole, of course, is the younger brother of longtimeC lemson safety Nolan Turner, who just finished up his final season of eligibility in The Valley.

We spoke with Sean Calhoun, who previously coached Turner at Vestavia Hills and has since become the head coach at Colquitt County High School (Moultrie, Ga.)

While Calhoun is no longer the head coach at Vestavia Hills, he took the time Tuesday afternoon to speak with The Clemson Insider regarding Cole, who officially put pen to paper and became a Clemson signee on National Signing Day.

“They know what they’re getting,” Calhoun said. “They’re getting a kid who’s gonna have a chip on his shoulder, who’s gonna be hungry. He’s an extremely hard worker, a good student, a good kid and he’s a really, really good football player. He’s athletic. He’s got a super high ceiling and it’s just one of those things that they’re getting a steal, in my opinion.”

The quicker Cole can grasp the playbook, the quicker he’ll get on the field. Of course, he has to make plays to get out there on the field, but he knows that he’s gonna have to come in and compete once he arrives in the summer.

Clemson handed out a New Year’s Day offer to Turner and he was on campus nearly two weeks later. He verbally pledged to the Tigers on the Sunday of his official visit. Calhoun said that it was definitely one of those situations where if things went well, he knew Cole was going to probably commit, but he didn’t know that he’d be 100% done, because he originally wanted to wait until NSD.

It felt like home and that was that. Calhoun detailed what ultimately went into Cole’s decision to commit to Clemson.

“Cole had went up for his official visit and obviously, it was everything that he had hoped for and more,” Calhoun said. “Obviously, he’s been there multiple times, but that’s been as a fan and as a supporter of his brother. It’s totally different when you go and you’re the main attraction. He’s never been the main attraction before and he was and he loved every part of it. Loved the family culture up there, loved the coaches. 

“He’s hit it off with Coach Grisham and also the family has known Coach Swinney for a while, but he’s gonna spend more time with the assistants. And, it was home. When you go on those visits, a lot of people have nice places and facilities, but it’s the feeling that you get and he went up there and he felt that it was home.”

Being that he’s already sent Kevin Swint to go play for Swinney, Calhoun had nothing but positive things to say about Clemson. After spending time with Clemson’s head coach and getting to know his staff from Swint’s recruitment, Calhoun confidently said that he would send his own son there.

While he has since moved on from Vestavia Hills and won’t be in attendance to watch Cole make it official, there are few people better suited to talk about the Clemson-bound three-star wideout. With that being said, what can Calhoun tell Clemson fans about who Cole is as a player and more importantly, a person, on and off the field?

“You’re gonna get a kid that’s gonna make Clemson better in the locker room, weight room, the hallways of the university and on the field,” he said. “That’s just the type of personality and type of kid he is. He makes people around him better. Phenomenal teammate, which I think is one of the best qualities as a player that you can give. That doesn’t take any talent. That doesn’t take any special ability to be able to be a great teammate and that’s what you’re gonna get.

“I think he’s gonna eventually make plays for them. I think he’s gonna help them win football games. But, he’s a great kid. He’s gonna be in the community at some point, doing community service and this and that. The sky’s the limit for him and, hopefully, the fans will appreciate what they’re getting.”

Clemson ended its season less than a week ago, but it’s never too early to look ahead.

The Clemson Insider is taking some time to analyze how the Tigers performed at each position this season and where the Tigers stand with each entering the offseason. Quarterback, running back, tight end, receiver, center, guard, offensive tackle, defensive tackle, defensive end, linebacker and cornerback have already been assessed.

Next up is safety.

A quick note first: This is where things currently stand with Clemson’s personnel at safety. With the one-time transfer rule and recruiting still in full effect, things are always subject to change. This story will be updated as needed to reflect any future modifications at the position.

2021 in review

The season got off to an inauspicious start at the position with both starting safeties on the mend. But with the help of the collective group, including a breakthrough freshmen, the back end of Clemson’s defense was solidified throughout the season.

Lannden Zanders underwent season-ending shoulder surgery after the opener against Georgia, a game veteran Nolan Turner missed because of an injury. Jalyn Phillips filled in as a starter in that game as did newcomer Andrew Mukuba, and the rest is history.

Mukuba played in all 13 games with 10 starts, becoming one of the ACC’s top freshmen over the course of the season. The league’s defensive rookie of the year finished fifth on the team in tackles and led Clemson with nine pass breakups. Turner eventually returned, starting all 10 games he played in his sixth and final season with the program. He finished fourth on the team in tackles.

The injuries gave Clemson a chance to develop some of their depth at the position beyond Phillips, who filled in for a hobbled Turner during the bowl game, too. Phillips tallied 39 tackles and three pass breakups on the season, but R.J. Mickens and Tyler Venables also saw their snap counts increase, especially after Joseph Charleston opted to transfer early in the season.

Mickens played in all 13 games while Venables, the son of former defensive coordinator Brent Venables, appeared in all but one. There were times Clemson even played three safeties at the same time depending on the matchup. As a result, the top five players in the rotation at the position each logged at least 245 snaps for a defense that finished second nationally in points allowed (14.8 per game) and 34th in passing yards allowed (209.2).

Zanders, a junior, is in line to return for another season while Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said Venables doesn’t plan to follow his dad to Oklahoma, so the Tigers are keeping some key pieces intact here. But with a few safeties set to depart the program, Clemson could use some more depth at the position.

Who’s leaving?

Turner, Charleston, Ray Thornton (transfer)

Who’s staying?

Mukuba, Zanders, Phillips, Mickens, Venables

Who’s joining?

Clemson has signed a pair of safeties to its 2022 recruiting class in Oscar Smith High (Virginia) standout Sherrod Covil Jr. and Jesuit High (Florida) product Wade Woodaz, who could play safety or linebacker but projects in the secondary in college. And the Tigers might not be done here.

Clemson ‘super pumped’ about new WR offer, legacy recruit

The Clemson Insider has the latest on a New Year’s Eve offer that was handed out to the brother of a longtime Clemson Tiger on Friday. Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School wide receiver Cole Turner has received an offer from the Tigers, according to …

The Clemson Insider has the latest on a New Year’s Eve offer that was handed out to the brother of a longtime Clemson Tiger on Friday.

Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School wide receiver Cole Turner has received an offer from the Tigers, according to Vestavia Hills head coach Sean Calhoun.

Cole, of course, is the younger brother of Clemson safety Nolan Turner.

Cole has been on Clemson receivers coach Tyler Grisham’s radar, and while the Tigers signed two receivers to their 2022 recruiting class on Dec. 15 — Myrtle Beach (S.C.) four-star Adam Randall and Dutch Fork (Irmo, S.C.) four-star Antonio Williams — the Tigers have still remained interested in Cole.

The Clemson Insider spoke with Calhoun on Friday following Cole’s offer from Clemson.

Off the field, Cole is a pretty low-key guy. But this morning, Calhoun could hear the excitement over the phone after Cole had let him know that he had been offered a scholarship by Clemson.

Soon then after came the phone call from Grisham.

“He told me that he spoke to Cole and offered him a scholarship,” Calhoun said. “They’re really excited about him as a receiver. Think he has a huge ceiling, his frame, his speed. Clemson’s done a really good job in finding certain positions of kids who are a little under-the-radar. Kids, who should’ve been more heavily recruited but were not. I definitely think Cole’s one of them. He definitely talked about that.”

“They’re super pumped,” he added. “We’re super excited. It’s great.”

Calhoun said that he made sure to tell Grisham that while Cole is a real good football player, he knows how Clemson likes to build its program.

“Most importantly, Cole is a great person,” Calhoun said, “and he’s a really good kid. He’s gonna be a positive influence and a positive role model for the University. He’s gonna be great in the locker room, in the weight room, on the field. You’re getting all-around. You’re not getting a football player that’s maybe a turd and is gonna cause you some off-the-field issues. Cole kind of gives you the all-around package in my opinion.” 

Calhoun also warned Grisham in their conversation this morning about what Cole can do with his legs.

“I’m telling ya now, you’re gonna be shocked about how good he can run,” Calhoun recalled. “He’s got them little, skinny white legs rolling and he can run. We don’t have many here, who can just take the top off, but he can really run.”

Calhoun talked with Cole and his mom and emphasized that he needed to remain patient throughout the process. According to Calhoun, in the recruiting realm, if Cole’s senior film was his sophomore film or junior year film, he’d likely have 25-plus offers.

“A lot of people don’t understand how recruiting works and he’s one of those only-senior film guys and his senior film is exceptional,” Calhoun said. “And he’s doing it against exceptional opponents. When you have a senior-only guy, a lot of schools — let’s just talk Power 5 — a lot of them are already full. So, it was a tedious process of finding people who weren’t full or finding people who lost a kid or two in the portal or the draft. To go through all that and get this call today and talk to them, I can’t be even more thrilled for Cole.”

“You have a kid who has seen his brother go under-the-radar tremendously,” he added. “His brother, Nolan, was a heck of a high school football player. To think that he didn’t have any offers a week before signing day blows me away. Cole had seen it, but then it’s totally different when you have to go through it.”

An official visit to Clemson has not been scheduled yet, but Calhoun imagines that will likely be in the cards. Though, he can confirm that Grisham, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and possibly some other assistant coaches are probably gonna come down to Vestavia Hills and watch Cole play basketball at some point.

Right now, the plan is for Cole to commit on signing day. Whether he will be signing with Clemson remains to be seen, but this was the offer he was waiting on.

Grisham keeping tabs on ‘diamond in the rough’ receiver prospect with Clemson ties

The Clemson Insider recently learned that Tyler Grisham made his way to the alma mater of two current Clemson players.

Grisham visited Vestavia Hills (Ala.) High School and met with the program’s head coach, Sean Calhoun. He was there to inquire about an underrated prospect in the class of 2022 by the name of Cole Turner.

If that last name sounds familiar, it’s because it is. Cole is the younger brother of longtime Clemson safety, Nolan Turner.

While Nolan will be moving on from Clemson after this season, as he no longer has any remaining eligibility, there’s a possibility that he could still be connected to the program through his brother.

Cole has been on Grisham’s radar and while Clemson signed two receivers to its 2022 recruiting class on Wednesday — Myrtle Beach (S.C.) four-star Adam Randall and Dutch Fork (Irmo, S.C.) four-star Antonio Williams — the Tigers still remain interested in Cole.

“He was definitely here to see Cole Turner,” Calhoun told TCI this week. “Cole is definitely on their radar. They are definitely on the right kid. So, obviously, you just got to see how [Wednesday’s] signing day goes and hopefully they’ll come back in January and come and see him again.”

Calhoun peeled back the curtain on what his conversation with Clemson’s wide receivers coach looked like.

“He wanted to know what kind of person Cole was first,” he said. “Before we talked any kind of football talk, it was, what kind of person is Cole? What kind of student is Cole? They wanted to know about the person first and obviously, we talked about football stuff, pros, cons, what he’s good at and what he can get better at.”

It’s no secret that Clemson is very thorough when it comes to its recruitment process.

Calhoun indicated that Clemson has not given him or Turner a decision either way in terms of whether they’d offer him a scholarship or as a PWO. 

“Cole is definitely worth it,” he said. “Cole is an under-the-radar guy. He’s one of those stereotypical guys, who didn’t have much junior film and has a lot of senior film. And, it’s really good and it’s vs. really, really good opponents. He’s a good player.”

Turner’s first Division I offer came from Buffalo. 

Buffalo’s coaches told Calhoun that they watched four clips of Turner’s tape and were set on offering him right then and there. Needless to say, they did.

“That’s just how explosive he is,” Calhoun said. “Again, he’s just not on recruiting boards because if his senior film was his junior film, he’d be a three/four-star. But, he’s not and I think that the people that do see it and do get on him at this time, whoever gets him is definitely gonna get an absolute diamond in the rough. There’s no doubt about it.”

Calhoun is a firm believer in Turner’s versatility, which is what Clemson certainly looks for in its receivers.

“I definitely think he can play inside, outside and he’s definitely a good return man,” he said. “He took a handful of punts to the house and took a kickoff to the house this year. To me, Cole is a kid that you want the ball in his hands because I think he can go the distance anytime. He’s very versatile and he’s only gonna get bigger and stronger once he gets in a college weight program.”

Turner, obviously, did not sign early. Between now and the February signing period, he’ll get a chance to see how some of the chips fall.

Turner has taken unofficial visits to both Ole Miss and South Florida. He has a handful of offers from FCS schools like East Tennessee State, Central Arkansas and Samford, in addition to the aforementioned offer from the University of Buffalo.

Calhoun didn’t want the conversation to end before he got the chance to talk about one of his former players, who is now a current defensive end/outside linebacker on Clemson’s roster, Kevin Swint.

“Hopefully, if Cole can get up there, that would be my second player that’s gone to Clemson,” he said. “That’s really exciting.”

What has Swint told Calhoun about Clemson?

“Whenever I talk to my players that went to college, the first thing I ask them is, ‘are you happy with your decision?’ He just smiles ear to ear,” Calhoun added. “He’s always wearing something orange. He’s obviously getting a good education and getting better athletically. He’s loving every bit of it.”
