The linebacker position was a big need for Clemson entering the 2019 recruiting cycle, with the Tigers set to lose several linebackers from their roster following this season.
Clemson certainly addressed that need, signing five linebackers during the early signing period on Dec. 19: Birmingham (Ala.) Jackson-Olin’s Vonta Bentley, Baton Rouge (La.) University Lab High’s Bryton Constantin, Malvern (Pa.) Prep’s Keith Maguire, Nashville (Tenn.) Christ Presbyterian Academy’s Kane Patterson and Swansea (S.C.)’s Greg Williams.
Clemson defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Brent Venables is thrilled with the group of new linebackers that the Tigers are bringing in.
