Clinton-Dix gets drafted by Green Bay |
Ha'Sean Treshon "Ha Ha" Clinton-Dix (born December 21, 1992) is an American football free safety for the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Alabama. Clinton-Dix was drafted by the Packers in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
A native of Eatonville, Florida, Clinton-Dix was nicknamed "Ha Ha" as an infant by his grandmother in response to "Ha'Sean" often being mispronounced /hɒˈʃɑːn/ (like "Shaun") instead of the intended /hɒˈsiːn/ (like "seen"). He prefers to go by "Ha Ha" and has stated that both he and his coaches love the moniker.
Clinton-Dix spent his freshman and sophomore years at Edgewater High School, where he played running back and was a teammate of Mike Brewster. Before his junior year, Clinton-Dix transferred to Dr. Phillips High School, where he played alongside Dee Hart. In addition to football, he lettered in basketball and track, participating in the 4 × 100 m and 4 × 400 m relay at Edgewater. In football, he was an All-American defensive back and kick returner at Dr. Phillips. Named a five-star recruit by Rivals.com, Clinton-Dix was ranked the No. 1 safety in his class and sixth-rated player overall. During his senior football season, Clinton-Dix, teamed with All-American running back Hart, led Dr. Phillips to a 14–1 season. The Panthers lost to future NFL running back Devonta Freeman and Miami Central in the Florida 6A State Championship Game, ending the season ranked #21 nationally by Rivals.com.
