Michel Dukes won’t be leaving the Palmetto State for his college football career.
The First Baptist running back committed to Clemson on Saturday. He made the announcement at his school, surrounded by family, friends and teammates.
Dukes will sign with the Tigers on Wednesday as part of national signing day. He is the second instate player for the Tigers’ Class of 2019, joining Swansea linebacker Greg Williams. Clemson had 26 players sign or enroll during the early signing period in December.
“I definitely enjoyed the whole process and going to different schools that wanted me to be part of their program has been a blessing,” Dukes said Friday night after his basketball game against Cardinal Newman.
