K.J. Henry kept his cards close to the vest during his recruitment, not letting on to which school he would choose. The Clemmons (N.C.) five-star defensive end talked up his top schools leading up to the Shrine Bowl last week, so on the outside, there was a lot of speculation and scuttlebutt about where he might go.
Henry, though, knew that he was headed to Clemson even before practices for the Shrine Bowl began on Dec. 11.
“Honestly, I had decided that Clemson was the place for me before I went to the Shrine Bowl,” Henry told The Clemson Insider.
