Where Clemson’s 2026 Recruiting Class Currently Ranks

Clemson is off to a fairly solid start with its 2026 recruiting class having already secured commitments from five different players.

4-star QB Tait Reynolds currently headlines the class. After a strong junior campaign at Queen Creek, Reynolds has taken home at least one Player of the Year award in the state of Arizona. He is just one of two quarterbacks committed in the class, with 3-star Brock Bradley committing during the summer.

The latest player to join the class was 3-star OL Braden Wilmes, who committed just after the end of the regular season.

There’s still close to a year to go before any of these players sign, but let’s take a look at where the class currently ranks at some of the major recruiting services.

2026 Class Rankings

  • 247Sports: No. 12
  • On3: No. 19
  • Rivals: No. 14

In today’s game, there is always the possibility of decommitments. Clemson suffered seven in the 2025 class. While there have been no defections in the 2026 class to date, it’s always something worth monitoring in the NIL era.

2026 Commits

  • 4-star QB Tait Reynolds
  • 4-star CB Shavar Young Jr
  • 3-star TE Tayveon Wilson
  • 3-star OL Braden Wilmes
