As Clemson continues to gear up for the 2023 football season, junior safety Andrew Mukuba has his sights set on redemption and resurgence after being banged up throughout last year.

During his time with the media today, Dabo Swinney told us that safety Tyler Venables would be redshirting due to a hip labrum tear.

The Clemson secondary is coming off a subpar 2022 season and co-defensive coordinator/safeties coach Mickey Conn said they have to be better in 2023.

On Wednesday's edition of Clemson Sports Talk, Swanny gives his thoughts on the teams outside the top of the polls that can make a run to the playoffs. Plus, we hear from Malcolm Greene, Tyler Venables, and Jon Blau from the Post and Courier joins the show.

Mickey Conn, who has served as the safeties coach for Clemson since 2017, added the title of co-defensive coordinator after former defensive coordinator Brent Venables became Oklahoma's head coach. He spoke on Wednesday about the position and what he's seen from players this spring.

Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables will have to prepare his defense for a tough matchup against No. 23 Pittsburgh. Venables talked about the challenge ahead against a top offense and watching his son, Tyler, make a key play in the 17-14 win over Syracuse.

Following Clemson's spring game on Saturday, Joseph Ngata said he feels 'fine', and Head Coach Dabo Swinney noted that if he's healthy, the sophomore wideout can make 'a million' plays for the Tigers in 2021.

Trenton Simpson has taken strides forward over the past year, but it hasn't been done without the tutelage of defensive coordinator Brent Venables.
