Clemson landing Wiggins is ‘God’s favor’

In the words of Dabo Swinney, the fact that Clemson was able to sign Nathaniel Wiggins is simply “God’s favor.”

Wiggins, a four-star cornerback from Georgia, had been committed to LSU since August before flipping his commitment to Clemson on Dec. 12, four days before the start of the early signing period last Wednesday.

Similar to the case with Travis Etienne, whom Swinney didn’t meet in person until late in the recruiting process, Swinney has never physically met Wiggins due to the in-person recruiting restrictions that have been put in place by the NCAA because of the coronavirus pandemic.
