Cane Berrong is an elite sophomore tight end. In fact, the Hartwell (Ga.) Hart County standout was tabbed as the nation’s No. 1 tight end in the latest rankings update by 247Sports for the class of 2021.
Instead of letting that ranking go to his head, however, Berrong intends to use it as motivation moving forward.
“Feels like I gotta work harder because now I got a big bulls-eye on my back,” he told TCI.
Berrong, who stands at 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, has racked up 17 scholarship offers to date. Clemson does not typically offer underclassmen prospects, but Berrong is high on the Tigers and hopes to earn an offer from Dabo Swinney’s program in the future.
