Clemson is always trying to reload in the trenches through recruiting, and the Tigers are in the conversation early on for one of the top defensive linemen that the class of 2021 has to offer.
Greensboro (N.C.) Dudley defensive tackle Payton Page made an unofficial visit to Clemson in December and plans to be back on campus for another visit soon.
“In like two weeks I think,” said Page, who is rated as a five-star by the 247Sports Composite and ranked among the top 20 prospects in his class regardless of position.
Just a sophomore, the 6-foot-4, 315-pound Page already possesses offers from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Oklahoma, Penn State, Tennessee, Texas, Texas A&M, Virginia Tech and a number of other major programs.
