Clemson adds player from fellow ACC team as preferred walk-on
Clemson adds player from fellow ACC team as preferred walk-on Hayes Galloway will join his father Lonnie, a wide receivers coach and offensive analyst, after announcing his decision to transfer to Clemson as a preferred walk-on Wednesday.
Dabo Swinney and the Clemson Tigers have picked up a commitment from an ACC football player.
Former North Carolina Tar Heels offensive lineman Hayes Galloway announced in a post to social media Wednesday that he had committed to Clemson football as a preferred walk-on. Galloway is the son of Lonnie Galloway, a Tigers wide receivers coach and offensive analyst.
Coach Galloway joined Clemson in February after previously serving as the Tar Heels' wide receivers coach for Mack Brown prior to Bill Belichick being named head coach in December.
Listed at 6-foot-4, 320 pounds, Hayes Galloway was a freshman at UNC in 2024 who enrolled in January and redshirted last season. He played five years at The Cannon School in Concord, N.C., where he was a five-time team captain and a two-time all-conference selection.
Preferred walk-ons are granted a spot on a team's roster but without the benefit of an athletic scholarship.
