Recruit from Swinney's alma mater recaps Clemson visit

During the NCAA contact period in January, Dabo Swinney stopped by his alma mater, Pelham High School in Pelham, Ala.

Clemson’s head coach was there to check in on several prospects, including standout 2019 defensive end Brock Higdon.

Swinney invited Higdon to visit for Clemson’s junior day, which was held last Saturday. Higdon made the trip and thoroughly enjoyed his time on campus.

“It was awesome,” Higdon told TCI.

Higdon’s family thought so, too. He was accompanied on the visit by his mother, father, sister and brother.

“They really enjoyed the family atmosphere it has to offer,” Higdon said.
