One of the top safeties in the 2023 recruiting cycle found out last weekend that Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney is extremely approachable.
Four-star safety DaKaari Nelson (6-3, 190) of Selma (AL) visited Clemson for the Tigers’ Elite Junior Day last weekend and walked away with an offer and a new appreciation for Swinney.
What was the highlight?
“Definitely meeting Coach Swinney and seeing how sociable he was,” Nelson told TigerNet. “With him being so well-known and kind of famous, I was expecting him to be put up somewhere. But he was out socializing everywhere.
