Clemson legacy recruit hoping for offer from Tigers

The son of a former Clemson football great will soon return to campus after attending the Orange & White spring game last month.

Chandler (Ariz.) 2021 defensive lineman Brandon Buckner told The Clemson Insider he plans to participate in the Dabo Swinney Camp in June.

“I’ll be in Clemson for the day camp in the summer,” he said.

Buckner has Power Five offers to play for Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon, Oregon State and Maryland, and was recently named DL MVP of The Opening regional combine that took place in the Oakland area last weekend.

The 6-foot-2, 240-pound sophomore is the son of former Clemson and NFL standout Brentson Buckner, who is now the defensive line coach of the Oakland Raiders after previously serving as the D-line coach for both the Arizona Cardinals (2013-17) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2018).
