Defensive Back: Andrew Booth

Incoming freshman Andrew Booth is the highest-rated defensive back to ever sign with Clemson, and it’s really not even that close.

Booth (0.9891 rating) was considered the No. 2 cornerback in the past class and certainly has the skillset to be a special player at the next level. Mackensie Alexander was the highest-rated defensive back before Booth, posting a 0.9853 rating. For reference, Alexander was the No. 4 cornerback in his class.

Booth has a little more size than what Alexander possessed, but has the same type of athleticism and physicality to be a lockdown cornerback from the very beginning.

He has been going through summer workouts and will get an opportunity to compete for playing time this season during fall camp.

It will be interesting to see how the freshman fares and what he is able to accomplish heading into his first season as a Tiger.
