Hampton Earle is the definition of a Clemson lifer. He grew up attending Tiger football games with his parents and dreamed of putting on the iconic orange uniform for as long as he can remember. His mother is an alumnus, while his father owns businesses in the area. It is safe to say that his path was laid down for him at a very young age.
From a very young age, Hamp Greene’s parents always emphasized the importance of discipline, accountability and work ethic. As a man of faith, these are values that he carries with himself every day, whether it be on or off the football field.
