Clemson football battled Midwest powers such as, Ohio State, Notre Dame and Michigan to land Matt Bockhorst.
Playing for St. Xavier – one of the top high school football programs in the nation – benefitted Bockhorst greatly coming into Death Valley. He was groomed in a championship program and understands the expectations that come with a high level of success.
With Tyrone Crowder and Taylor Hearn moving on to the NFL, Bockhorst will get a chance to throw his hat in the ring for a starting spot at guard this offseason.
Strengths
Bockhorst is a hard-nosed, mauling run blocker.
