Clemson’s steady, every-down long snapper
Austin Spence is a former walk-on who became Clemson’s dependable long snapper, appearing in 31 career games and handling snaps in every game of the 2017 and 2018 seasons. His value is mostly about trust, consistency, and low-drama reliability rather than box-score stats: special teams coaches can count on him to be precise, durable, and assignment-sound under pressure. For a team needing a proven specialist who has already handled a full ACC workload, Spence’s biggest differentiator is simple—he did the job, every week, without being a headline until the snap was perfect.
