Since taking over as the tight ends coach, in addition to being Clemson’s offensive coordinator, Tony Elliott has made sure to recruit some of the nation’s top tight ends.
One of those tight ends is Thompson’s Station (TN.) Independence 2023 four-star Ty Lockwood, who has remained on Elliott’s radar after his visit to Clemson earlier last month.
Lockwood (6-5, 225) is the No. 3 ranked prospect in the state of Tennessee and No. 4 tight end prospect in the Class of 2023, per 247Sports Composite.
He hasn’t been hearing much from Clemson lately. He has the ability to reach out to the coaching staff but says the Tigers are really strict on following the rules, which he absolutely respects a lot.
