The Clemson Junior Day circuit will come to a close on Saturday afternoon when the Tigers gather for the annual Orange and White game.
As has been the case over the last several years, a number of conflicting events will keep the Orange and White Junior Day guest list from being as strong as the days in January and March. Several rivals are also scheduled to have their spring games on Saturday, including South Carolina, Florida State and Georgia.
Mecole Hardman confirmed that he would “try for sure” to attend Clemson’s spring game. The 2016 wide receiver from Elberton, Georgia is the cousin of sophomore running back Tyshon Dye.

At least two instate prospects are scheduled to visit Georgia on Saturday: 2017 S Tank Robinson (Lake Marion) and 2018 QB Dakereon Joyner (Fort Dorchester). Wren quarterback Jay Urich, the 2017 transfer from Blue Ridge, will visit Clemson or South Carolina.
