4-star Florida OL: 'Coach Caldwell is a legend'
Come Sept. 1, college coaches can begin directly contacting 2023 prospects in the junior class.
Orlando (Fla.) Dr. Phillips four-star offensive lineman Payton Kirkland believes an offer from Clemson may be coming his way, based on what he has heard from offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell.
Kirkland (6-5, 330) is ranked as the No. 9 offensive tackle in the country and the No. 123 overall prospect regardless of position in the 2023 class, per the 247Sports Composite rankings.
“Coach Caldwell told me to look for it September 1st, we got something for you,” he told The Clemson Insider.
Caldwell has been Kirkland’s primary recruiter for the Tigers.
