Clemson football isn’t going anywhere because the coaching staff continues to stay intact and recruiting is at an all-time high.
Here’s a look at the last four recruiting classes and where they landed in the 247 Sports Composite Team Rankings:
- 2018: No. 7
- 2019: No. 10
- 2020: No. 3
- 2021: No. 4
