The Clemson Tigers are looking to sign one running back prospect in the 2018 recruiting class. Here are the Tigers best options.

At this point in the recruiting cycle, Clemson is on the outside looking in for the services of 5-star running back, Zamir White. Early on, Clemson was looked at as the favorite to land White, but, Georgia has come on strong over the past few months. White is reportedly scheduled to attend Clemson’s Orange and White game this weekend.

Clemson is actively recruiting a handful of other backs in the 2018 recruiting class, but, has yet to offer majority of them.

In a previous interview with four-star running back, Master Teague III he stated the following, “he (Tony Elliott) was saying he’s got four guys he’s looking at and he wants to come to my spring practice to see how I run, see how I move and if he likes it he might give me an offer then or close to that time.”

If Teague’s comments are any indicator it sounds as though Tony Elliott and the Tigers staff are waiting to watch each of these prospects in person, before extending any scholarship offers. The Tigers are thorough in the recruiting process and for good reason. Here are the three running backs the Tigers should turn up the heat on.
