College prospects were allowed to visit campuses and meet with coaches in person for the time in over a year starting Tuesday, and it’s already paid dividends for Clemson as the top edge-rusher in the country now lists the Tigers as his leader.
Defensive end Jeremiah Alexander (6-2 235) is a 5-star out of Alabaster (AL) Thompson, and he was one of the first prospects in to see Clemson when the live period started on Tuesday. That was important for the Tigers because it gave Dabo Swinney, defensive tackles coach Todd Bates and defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall a chance to get the jump on the competition.
