1. Vonta Bentley, 4-star LB

4-star linebacker Vonta Bentley rounds out our list.

Bentley, a product out of Birmingham, Alabama, is said to be favoring Clemson football at this point in his commitment.

Bentley is one of the best linebackers in this 2019 class and to get him to leave his home state would be a huge feat for Clemson. (Of course, the Tigers are used to doing that by now anyway.)

With that being said, I really like Clemson’s chances for landing Bentley.

He was on campus this past week for Dabo Swinney’s football camp and was said to have another great visit. He is slated to visit LSU later this June and is arranging to go to Miami. He has consistently said that Clemson is his No. 1 school and that Alabama is No. 2.

Bentley is planning to visit the All-In Cookout later this summer and then is planning to make his decision before the end of July.
