Running back Will Shipley out of Matthews, NC announced his commitment to Clemson football via twitter this afternoon. He chose the Tigers over Alabama, Duke, Florida, and Georgia.
Adding another five-star commitment to the 2021 class is a big pickup for the Tigers, who are quickly becoming a destination for elite running backs. He will join four-star running back Phil Mafah in the 2021 class.
According to the 247Sports Composite, he is the top-rated all-purpose back in the country, the top player out of the state of North Carolina, and the 24th best recruit in the country.
