****More Offers!
Offers continue to pour out of Clemson with the Tigers expecting
to take on a full class of 25 allotted scholarships available for 2018 per NCAA
rules. For the first time in almost 4 years, the Tigers will have room to take
on a full recruiting class.
The staff has been hamstrung with the last 3 classes totaling
less than 20 scholarships, and it has required them to be very selective in who
they offer and how offers transpire.
Just look at how the running back situation unfolded in 2018, and you
get the idea.
This staff has already exceeded over 100 offers already, and we
have not even gotten to the May evaluation period, when the staff stops at high
schools to check in after spring practices have wound down. A flurry of offers has been status quo for
May. Not to mention the big Junior Day
event is coming up next weekend on the heels of the beginning of spring practice
for the Tigers. So things are really going to get interesting as the staff
starts to narrow an already large big board and continue to offer potential
players as they continue their evaluations.
Stay tuned right here to the Recruiting Radar for all the latest!
In the meantime, here is the week’s latest offerings.
****Tigers Offer Massive Northeastern Offensive Lineman
As expected, Clemson offered 2019 OL Xavier Truss out of Bishop
Hendricken High in Warwick, Rhode Island. Truss just visited the Clemson
campus this past week and had been told the offer was going to drop following
his visit to Tiger Town. Stay tuned, as Clemson has rocketed to the top of this
monster's short list, which already includes blue bloods of the SEC and ACC
like Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Tennessee and Arkansas along with Southern Cal.

****Tigers Offer Another Prospect from Bayou Country
Clemson is once again pillaging the deep central southeast,
offering another Louisiana prospect in Makiya Tongue out of Baton Rouge. Tongue
is the third defensive back from the Bayou State to receive an offer from the
ACC Tigers recently. The 4-star athlete is already 6'2 and looks perfect to
play the safety role at Clemson. Look for him to be in the Clemson area
in the near future, as we expect him to trip to Tiger Town in the near future.
Tongue already has offers already secured from Power Five
schools like Auburn, Texas, Ole Miss, Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas and
Kansas State with interest pouring in from all over. Now he can add the 3-time
Defending ACC Champs to the mix.

of traction nationally.
The Tigers stepped in to offer and join a long list of suitors that
currently includes Alabama, Ohio State, Florida, Southern Cal, Miami, Notre
Dame, Penn State, Michigan State, Louisville and many more. Stay tuned to
see if the Boilermaker commit pulls away from that commitment to see what is

****Clemson Offers Sunshine State DB
Clemson reached into the northern coastal region of Florida to
offer Madison High School's 4-star DB Travis Jay. He is a Florida lean and
picking up offers from all over the Power Five, but this one seems to be an in-state
battle with local FSU and Florida the favorites.
Jay’s latest offer from the Defending ACC Champions is added to
those of FSU, Miami, Alabama, Auburn, Georgia and Louisville, to name a
few. Stay tuned to see if the Tigers can get Jay to visit. This staff has
proven in the past that no prospect is unreachable once they get him on campus. It’s
recruiting, folks, and the Tigers will almost always have a chance!

boards and has now secured the Clemson offer. The West Jones High prospect out
of Laurel, Mississippi is expected to trip into Tiger Town in the next few
weeks. Stay tuned, as we continue to follow Young and his recruitment!
****Another Top-Tier LB Offered

Dean out of Horn Lake High School. Dean has exploded over the last year
and is looking at offers from all over the Power Five.
The Tigers join the likes of Alabama, Auburn, LSU, FSU, Florida,
Michigan, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas A&M and others.

****Clemson Offers North Carolina’s Top DL
Clemson reached into the Tar Heel state and offered arguably the
#1 defensive lineman in the state, as the staff dispensed an offer to longtime
recruit Joshua Harris. He has been to Clemson often over the past two
seasons, including multiple games last fall. This offer has been a long
time coming with Harrris blowing up and performing well at camps. Clemson
has finally decided to join in the mix and offer the 4-star stud out of
Roxboro.
Stay tuned, as we will be tracking this one closely moving
forward. Harris has expressed big interest in the Tigers, and now the feeling
is mutual with Clemson’s big Junior Day event coming up next week. Expect to
see Harris in Pickens County!
