Quote: Clemson’s 2017 recruiting class picked up another 5-star Friday afternoon with the commitment of the nation’s number one corner in Atlanta (GA) Westlake’s A.J. Terrell. Terrell says he’s ready to play for championships.

Terrell committed to the Tigers via a Rivals video, becoming the 13th player for the 2017 recruiting cycle. Terrell is also the third player with a 5-star rating by at least one of the major scouting services, joining wide receiver Tee Higgins and quarterback Hunter Johnson. Terrell picked Clemson over Florida and South Carolina, but said the Tigers were way ahead of the two SEC schools, with Florida coming in a distant second.

The 6-foot, 205-pound Wilson, of Clay High School in Green Cove Springs, near Jacksonville, is ranked the nation's No. 156 prospect overall and No. 15 running back by Scout. He's ranked No. 170 overall and No. 11 at his position by Rivals.

Wilson chose the Cardinals from a list of power-conference scholarship offers that included Notre Dame, Ohio State, Auburn, South Carolina, Tennessee and Wisconsin.

The commitment shot the Cards' class up to No. 20 in Rivals' national team rankings with still nearly four months to go before national signing day. Seventh-ranked Clemson, No. 11 Miami and No. 14 Florida State are the only ACC classes ahead of U of L's.

Wilson is also rated four stars and the No. 298 senior nationally by ESPN.com, joining Marshall (No. 228) as the Cards' only pledges in that's site's top 300.

So how much do y'all think this years success will have in recruiting? Will y'all start getting more than 2-3 four star players or is that how Bobby is?

Gosh. Who could have seen that one coming? :)

BTW, why does he say that Clemson's 2018 class will be so small?

Quote: Clemson 2017 quarterback commit Hunter Johnson was named the MVP of the 2017 Army All-American game at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday afternoon.

Johnson was 3 out-of-10 for 91 yards and a passing touchdown to help the East team in the win.

"It was a blast, so much fun,” Johnson said via USA Today Sports. “I could not have expected a better time.”

Johnson will enroll early at Clemson on Monday to begin his first year of college.

In 2016, Johnson passed for 2,233 yards with 25 touchdowns and also rushed for 525 yards and three scores.
