Four-star linebacker LaVonta Bentley has been committed to Clemson since July, but he got to experience something new in Tigertown last Saturday — a night game at Death Valley.

The Birmingham (Ala.) Jackson-Olin standout attended second-ranked Clemson’s 56-35 win over arch rival South Carolina.

“It was awesome,” Bentley said. “The first night game I’ve been to down in Death Valley was intense. The fans were so hyped.”

The visit to Clemson of course gave Bentley another opportunity to be around the coaches.

“They were excited that I came down and walked me around to meet some of the recruits,” he said.
