Messages from college football coaches and mail from major programs flooded the phone and mailbox of five-star lineman Gunner Givens on Sept. 1, the first day coaches and schools could directly contact and send recruiting materials to prospects in the class of 2022.
“It’s been wild,” Givens said to The Clemson Insider regarding his recruitment since the start of this month. “I woke up the morning of Sept. 1, had 180 (text) messages and like 100 Twitter DMs (direct messages). Then I walk outside, go to my mailbox and I open my mailbox, it literally just pours out of it.
