DeAndre Hopkins put together a special career during his time at Clemson, where he starred from 2010 to 2012. During those three years, he finished with 205 catches for 3009 yards and 27 touchdowns. His best season was his final season, when he finished with 82 catches for 1,405 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns.
After an incredible NFL career, he has become a college coach and is now the wide receiver coach at Georgia Tech.
On Saturday, the Yellow Jackets picked up a big-time upset at Clemson, and Hopkins sent a message on social media.

The loss was another very disappointing result for Dabo Swinney, as the Tigers are on their way to missing the College Football Playoff for the second consecutive year. Swinney has continued to be behind when it comes to the NIL and transfer portal, and there could be some very tough conversations moving forward after the season ended.
Clemson has two tough games to finish the rest of the year, as they travel to Duke next week, then end the season with South Carolina. While there isn’t a ton to play for in 2027, the next two weeks could be interesting for Swinney.
