Clemons played college football as a tackle, first as Paul Quinn College in Dallas, Texas, from 1922 to 1924 under brothers Fred T. Long and Harry Long. In 1926, Chief Aiken, head coach at Atlanta University, convinced Clemons and several other Paul Quinn players to leave Texas for Atlanta. Clemons ultimately ended up at Morris Brown College, where he started alongside Billy Nicks.

Clemons died in March 1966, in Jacksonville.^[1]
