On Oct. 26, Connor Shaw broke Kony Ealy’s heart.

Two months later, Ealy couldn’t wait to meet him.

The pair worked out together of six weeks at Chip Smith Performance in Duluth, Ga., to prepare for this week’s NFL Combine. The moment Shaw walked in the door, Ealy, who played defensive end for Missouri during last season’s 27-24 double-overtime loss to the Gamecocks, sought out Shaw for a picture, which he immediately posted on his Facebook page.

“He walked over to Connor and said, ‘I want to shake your hand,’” Smith said. “He said, ‘This dude single-handedly beat us.’”


quote:

At The Performance Compound in Tampa, Fla., former South Carolina players Bruce Ellington, Victor Hampton and Kelcy Quarles worked out with former Clemson star Sammy Watkins for six weeks and became fast friends.

“These guys definitely came down here and took me in,” Watkins said. “On that field, we know we have to battle, but after the game we are best friends.”

Ellington and Watkins became especially tight, eating lunch together at a Tampa restaurant every day after their on-field workouts. On Thursday, Watkins tweeted a picture of him and Ellington waiting to board a flight here for their time at the combine.


...what's the play here?

Ealy = gay.

JK. That's cool.

I think a lot of these out of state guys like Watkins don't seem to get into the hate as much in the rivalry. Clemson was a pit-stop on the way to the NFL for him.

Like the Romans before us, our players have learned it better to assimilate the conquered into your culture rather than to rape, pillage and murder them into non existence.
