Big 22: South Pointe’s Seth Tillman
Channel 9’s Big Player to Watch, South Pointe senior Seth Tillman, said he wears his heart on his forearm.
South Pointe senior Seth Tillman has recently gotten a tattoo in honor of his late father, Reginald Tillman. The 22-year-old football player shared that his father passed away just days after his son was set to announce his college commitment publicly. In a touching video posted on social media, Seth and his family are seen gathered around his father's bedside as he announces his commitment to Clemson University.
Seth Tillman has made it clear that everything he does is for his father, whom he fondly calls "Big Reg." The defensive lineman said that his father kept encouraging him, even during late-night talks, by pointing out his hidden talent. Seth expressed his motivation this year as being driven by his father's legacy, as well as his mother's sacrifices.
Tillman's mother played a crucial role in his decision-making process. She helped him visit various colleges and made multiple sacrifices for him, including traveling despite her dislike for airplanes. Her support and dedication have undoubtedly influenced Seth's journey as he continues to honor his father's memory and strive to fulfill their shared goals.
