The month of March was very kind to Clemson on the recruiting trail.
The Elite Retreat set of a number of commitments, including three blue-chip offensive linemen in Adam Guthrie, Chance Barclay and Grant Wise, that sent the Tigers skyrocketing up the recruiting rankings.
Three-star DT Kam Cody was the most recent addition to the class, announcing a commitment last weekend. Cody, along with Barclay and Guthrie were all back on campus for the spring game, as were commits Braden Wilmes and Brock Bradley.
It’s a class that features 13 verbal pledges, with two of the major recruiting services currently ranking it inside of the top five nationally.
