When Dabo Swinney meets with his staff each year to start work on a new recruiting class, the first thing he tells them is to make sure they get who they consider to be their No. 1 draft pick, if you will.
It’s hard to say who Clemson’s top pick might had been if the 2016 Recruiting Class was based on draft selections, but it is easy to believe Spartanburg running back Tavien Feaster would be right up there.
Like five-star offensive tackle Mitch Hyatt before him and five-star quarterback Deshaun Watson before Hyatt, Feaster committed to Clemson a full year before he actually signed his name on his National Letter of Intent on Wednesday.
