Defensive Tackle (6 offers)

Top Targets:

  • Travis Shaw (5-star; Greensboro, NC)
  • Walter Nolan (5-star; Cordova, TN)
  • Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy (5-star; Lakeland, FL)
  • Caden Curry (4-star; Greenwood, IN)
  • Alex VanSumeren (4-star; Essexville, MI)

Clemson is likely to take two defensive tackles in this class and the top target- without a doubt- is 5-star Travis Shaw. Shaw is likely a race between Clemson and UNC, but his recruitment is by no means coming to an end.

Caden Curry and Alex VanSumeren (new offer) are names to keep your eyes on. The Tigers would love Walter Nolan, but they’re in heavy competition with programs like Alabama, Ohio State, LSU, Georgia, Michigan and others.
