Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney has to be thrilled with how well recruiting has been going.
Since the start of spring ball, Swinney has landed nine commitments, growing the class from five to 14 in a couple of months. That's also boosted the class from the 30-40 range up to No. 2 in the country which just goes to show that he's still got it.
Summer official visit season is only going to yield more Tiger commitments.
Swinney is busy scheduling officials and making sure his top targets are treated as such with visits and attention. He has a busy few months coming up and his top targets are already narrowing their lists down to top fives and top 10s.
One more target released a top six on Tuesday afternoon, and it's loaded. The good news for Clemson, however, is that it's included in this loaded list. The bad news? It feels like it's going to be an uphill battle to land four-star edge rusher Dre Quinn.
NEWS: Norcross (Ga.) 4-star EDGE Dre Quinn narrows his list down to Clemson, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Notre Dame, Tennessee and Texas.

Outside of Georgia Tech (which also happens to be a rising program), every team on this list has competed for a national title in the past few years. Georgia has won multiple, Tennessee was right there before a Hendon Hooker injury, Notre Dame made the title game last year, and Texas was in the playoff and is the likely preseason No. 1 team in the country.
Yeah, it seems like Swinney will have his hands full with this recruitment.
Quinn, a native of Norcross, Ga., is ranked the No. 259 overall recruit and No. 27 edge rusher in the class, per 247Sports. He held 38 offers before trimming his list to six.
This one's going to be tough.
