In January during the NCAA contact period, Clemson assistant Todd Bates traveled to the school of Roanoke (Ala.) Handley 2021 defensive end Dylan Brooks to watch one of the two-sport standout’s basketball games.
On Monday of this week, Brooks returned the favor with a trip to Clemson – his first unofficial visit to the school.
“It was fun,” Brooks told TCI. “It was my first time at their campus.”
Just a sophomore, the 6-foot-5, 225-pound Brooks already owns a double-digit offer list that includes Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, LSU, Mississippi State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas A&M and Virginia Tech among others.
