Clemson is already on the search for a quarterback target in the 2029 recruiting class.
The Tigers locked up their 2027 quarterback, four-star Kharim Hugley, in the summer of 2025. The staff also got one of its top 2028 targets, Trace Hawkins, locked up pretty quickly, with the four-star committing in late July.
While 2029 offers likely won’t start going out until next summer, that doesn’t mean the work on identifying the next top targets isn’t already taking place.
One name worth watching is four-star Khayel Sam Fong-Talia. The 6-foot, 230-pound left-handed signal caller began his high school career at in-state Dillon before transferring to South Forsyth in Georgia ahead of his sophomore campaign.
