Stay ConnectedTHE PLAYERS CLUB: ’21 is a weekly college football video podcast hosted by Clemson running back Darien Rencher. It’s a player-only perspective on what’s going on in college football both on and off the field. This isn’t a place for journalists or has-beens to spit hot takes in search of clicks. Rather it’s a much-needed space for the athletes themselves to speak their minds and offer refreshing firsthand perspectives on the sport they love and play.
A podcast by the players, for the people.
