Eric Taylor is considered one of the top defensive tackle prospects in not only the Yellowhammer State but all of the country for the class of 2020. The Trussville (Ala.) Hewitt-Trussville product has over a dozen scholarship offers in tow as a junior.
While Clemson has not yet pulled the trigger on an offer, Taylor told TCI he feels it is one of several schools showing the most early interest along with Alabama, Georgia, Florida State and Auburn.
The interest between the Tigers and Taylor is mutual, as the 6-foot-5, 285-pound recruit is hoping to see an offer from Clemson come his way.
