4-star Alabama DE feeling the love from Clemson ahead of visit

Clemson is showing plenty of early interest in a four-star edge rusher who hails from the same high school as a few current Tigers.

Class of 2023 defensive end Tomarrion Parker of Phenix City (Ala.) Central High School – which has produced Clemson receivers Justyn Ross and E.J. Williams, along with safety Ray Thornton – is firmly on Clemson’s recruiting radar.

“They’ve been showing the love, Clemson,” Parker told The Clemson Insider.

Parker (6-4, 250) is keeping in touch with Clemson defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall as well as defensive coordinator Brent Venables.

The Tigers typically refrain from offering prospects until the summer before their junior year, per Dabo Swinney’s policy, but the rising junior Parker is certainly a candidate to pick up an offer from the program in due time.
