First look at former Clemson basketball star Ian Schieffelin with a football
First look at former Clemson basketball star Ian Schieffelin with a football Clemson's Dabo Swinney Camp is underway this week, but this year's event includes a new and unexpected face — former basketball standout Ian Schieffelin, now officially a member of the Clemson football program. Schieffelin made headlines last week when he shared a photoshopped image of himself in a half-basketball, half-football jersey with 'NEXT CHAPTER' written across it, signaling his transition from the hardwood to the gridiron. Now listed as a tight end on Clemson's official football roster, Schieffelin was seen participating in camp activities on Tuesday as the Tigers hosted hundreds of high school players from around the country. The 6-foot-8, 240-pound athlete brings a unique skill set to the football field. After four years on the basketball team under Brad Brownell, Schieffelin is using his final year of eligibility to try his hand at football. He was a consistent force for the Tigers this past season, averaging 12.4 points and 9.4 rebounds while starting all 34 games and helping Clemson reach a program-record 27 wins. Dabo Swinney has long been intrigued by Schieffelin's athleticism, once saying the forward could 'play whatever he wants.' Now, Swinney will have a chance to utilize that versatility as Clemson gears up for a highly anticipated 2025 season opener against LSU on August 30.

Social media reacts to Clemson taking down Georgia Tech to advance to the ACC Championship
Social media reacts to Clemson taking down Georgia Tech to advance to the ACC Championship The Tigers are headed back to the ACC Championship Game for the second time in three years after knocking off No. 1 seed Georgia Tech, 9–4, on Saturday in Durham. Jacob Jarrell launched a third-inning grand slam over the Blue Monster to flip an early 3–0 deficit, and Clemson never trailed again. That blast was Jarrell's 15th homer of the season — and it blew the game wide open. Collin Priest added a solo shot in the 9th for good measure, while Andrew Ciufo doubled twice and scored twice to keep Clemson rolling. Cam Cannarella and TP Wentworth also drove in runs in a well-rounded offensive effort. Talan Bell got the start on the mound, but it was Jacob McGovern who slammed the door, tossing four scoreless innings and retiring All-ACC slugger Drew Burress to end it. Clemson (44–15) has now won six straight and will play for its 12th ACC Tournament title Sunday at noon on ESPN2. The Tigers await the winner of Florida State vs. North Carolina. With the huge win came some big reactions. Here is how social media reacted to Clemson advancing to the ACC Championship.

onX Just Uncovered That the Public Land Sales Proposal Is Actually Much Bigger Than We Thought
America's public-land champions are sitting on pins and needles today as the House of Representatives debates a budget proposal that would require the federal government to sell off huge chunks of those lands in Utah and Nevada. Hunters, anglers, and other public-land advocates have for days been hounding their representatives to remove the public land sales amendment from what House Republicans are calling the One Big, Beautiful Bill. Now, thanks to a report released by onX Wednesday morning, public-land advocates are learning that the scale of public lands identified in this proposal is even worse — much worse — than initially thought. As the debate in the House dragged on today, onX announced that the federal acreage slated for disposal is roughly three times larger than the previous estimates, which were around 500,000 acres. 'onX's GIS analysis reveals that nearly 1.5 million acres of public lands in Utah and Nevada are under threat — tripling previous estimates,' according to the report, which includes the first and only digital map of the lands being threatened, and which is embedded here: According to onX, their 'geospatial team started with a set of PDF maps specifically referenced in the legislative text showing federal lands that could be sold off. Some of these maps were already tied to real-world locations, which let us trace the parcels by hand. Some we had to manually align to real-world locations and then extract the parcel information. Others had embedded data that we could pull straight from the files. In one case, we were even given a full digital dataset. For a few larger areas that were only roughly outlined, we used our own onX parcel data to pinpoint exactly which federal lands were included.' As we've previously reported, part of the reason this budget proposal is so problematic and ill-conceived is that it's being done behind closed doors in late-night meetings, with none of the transparency or public input that has traditionally guided public land transfers in the U.S. Ben Brettingen, hunt marketing manager for onX, says the mapping company's GIS team has been digging into the public-land data since May 14. That's when the team first saw maps based on the text of the amendment, which was introduced late at night on May 6 by Reps. Celeste Maloy and Mark Amodei and pushed through the House Natural Resources Committee. Brettingen was turkey hunting in Wisconsin when he got a text from a colleague that included the raw maps. 'I just did a double take, and my blood ran cold,' Brettingen tells Outdoor Life. He'd recognized the maps from a chukar hunting trip he took to Nevada recently, and suddenly the amorphous policy proposal from D.C. became something real and recognizable. 'It's one of those things where these lands are not in [your] backyard, so you would never think that this stuff would impact you. And then, when it does, it hits you right in the gut.' As Brettingen explains in a video highlighting the value of these public lands, he had heard about the controversial public land sales amendment earlier in May, and immediately pictured some Southwestern scrublands near gas stations and bordering interstates. Then he put two and two together. Read Next: Here's Why the Federal Land Sale Bill Is a Bad Idea, and Horrible Legislation 'These weren't throwaway acres,' Brettingen says. 'This is prime country. Places I know. Places I've bled and sweat and watched dogs lock up on rock outcroppings. And if these lands are considered disposable, what's next? 'Because here's the truth. They don't always look like National Parks. There's no paved road, no welcome sign. But to those who have climbed them, who've hunted them, they are sacred. And they're irreplaceable … If they can dispose of this land, what's stopping them from coming for yours?'

Clemson is all over CBS Sports' 2025 college football award winner predictions
Clemson is all over CBS Sports' 2025 college football award winner predictions CBS Sports is forecasting a big year for several of Clemson's top playmakers. In its annual predictions for major college football awards, CBS named Cade Klubnik, T.J. Parker and Peter Woods as expected winners of national honors in 2025. Klubnik is projected to win the Davey O'Brien Award, given to the nation's best quarterback. CBS' Will Backus wrote that Klubnik stands out due to his mobility, experience, and chemistry with offensive coordinator Garrett Riley. 'Klubnik also benefits from an excellent supporting class, highlighted by the ACC's top returning receiver in Antonio Williams,' Backus noted. Parker is CBS' pick for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, which honors college football's top defensive player. After leading the nation with 12 sacks last season, Parker's ability to disrupt from the edge has him poised for more recognition. 'Few are better there than Parker,' Backus wrote. Woods is projected to win the Outland Trophy as the top interior lineman. Known for his elite athleticism and power, Woods racked up 8.5 tackles for loss and three sacks last season. 'He's the type of defensive tackle that routinely commands double teams,' Backus said, adding that his presence opens up opportunities for teammates like Parker. Klubnik, Parker and Woods were the only ACC players included in CBS Sports' award predictions. CBS tabbed Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith as the early favorite to win the Heisman Trophy.
