Since arriving to Clemson almost four years ago, Brent Venables has actively recruited in Virginia and Maryland.
Late last month, the Tigers’ defensive coordinator sent out an offer to Virginia Beach defensive end Jordan Williams, a 2017 four-star from Cox High School.
“I was talking to my head coach, coach (Brad) Nelson, and he was telling me that Clemson called,” Williams said. “Coach Venables, the defensive coordinator, called him about me. They were talking for a good 30 minutes and that night he wrote down on a sticky note his number and said give him a call, he wants to talk to you about something.
