Recruiting is the lifeblood of all college football programs. In order to compete for national championships on a yearly basis, you must recruit at a high level on a yearly basis. Clemson football recruiting has continuously improved under Dabo Swinney. The Tigers have established recruiting pipelines in Florida with guys like Sammy Watkins, Deon Cain, and Ray-Ray McCloud; Georgia with Vic Beasley, Deshaun Watson, and Wayne Gallman; and in the 2017 recruiting class the Tigers are well represented in Tennessee with commits from Tee Higgins, Amari Rodgers, and Cordarrian Richardson.
