Interview – Clarkston Hines (A true GOAT)

Listen to the interview here.

While it is hard to compare wide receivers from different eras of football, no one can dispute that Clarkston Hines is one of the greatest wide receivers to ever play at Duke. He has an unbelievable list of records and accomplishments as a Blue Devil that includes an ACC Championship in 1989. If you haven’t seen him play, pull up some old games on YouTube and you’ll see that he was a true playmaker.

Clarkston is a member of the Duke Athletics Hall of Fame, the College Football Hall of Fame and was a member of the ACC 50th Anniversary Team. And his teams went 4-1 against Carolina. Not too shabby!

And here is one of his most memorable catches to help turn the tide against Clemson and spark the Blue Devils to a conference title.

We covered a lot of topics including the current real estate market, the 1990 Bills team, Clarkston’s former OC Tommy Bowden, Coaches Sloan and Spurrier, the 1989 ACC Championship season and two scoreboard pictures taken that year – one against Maryland and one against UNC.

Enjoy!
