Clemson Football: Updated look at 2020 class before All-In Cookout

The Clemson football program will host its annual All-In Cookout this Friday. Here’s an updated look at the 2020 recruiting class before the event.

The Clemson football program will host its annual All-In Cookout this Friday afternoon as a way to officially close down summer activities and spring into the beginning of the season.

The All-In Cookout is the premiere recruiting event of the year for the Tigers and always sees several key visitors on campus.

In addition to the cookout being a way to get recruits on campus, the event is also the final major summer occurrence of the year for the Tigers before they begin fall camp.

As we head into the 2019 All-In Cookout, here’s an updated look at the 2020 recruiting class.

2020 Clemson Football Commits (Star-Ratings from 247 Sports’ Composite):

• 5-star DL Bryan Bresee (No. 1 at position, No. 2 overall player in the nation)
• 5-star DE Myles Murphy (No. 2 at position, No. 4 overall)
• 5-star QB DJ Uiagalelei (No. 1 at position, No. 12 overall)
• 5-star RB Demarkcus Bowman (No. 2 at position, No. 16 overall)
• 5-star DT Demonte Capehart (No. 2 at position, No. 26 overall)

Analysis:

That’s an impressive bunch. The Tigers have a total of six players inside the top-30 in the nation and seven total 5-stars. Clemson also has 13 commitments that are currently inside the top-7 of their position, including the nation’s top QB and DL.

This group is good enough currently for an average of 0.9445 and is ranked as the No. 1 class in the nation. For reference, the second class in the country is Alabama with a 0.9326 average.

The Tigers still have several targets remaining in this 2020 cycle, but likely won’t sign more than a handful at this point. Names to keep your eye on include 5-star LB Justin Flowe, 5-star DE Jordan Burch, 4-star WR EJ Williams, 4-star WR Xzavier Henderson and 3-star WR Ajou Ajou, in addition to a few others.

The All-In Cookout will be a great time for these Clemson football commitments and give them a chance to interact with one another, as well as recruit some of these remaining targets that will be on campus for the event.
