The one bright side in latest Clemson football recruiting trends

Things haven’t gone according to plan for the Clemson football program in the class of 2022 recruiting cycle, at least not as of late.

The Tigers lost two top targets to the Georgia Bulldogs last week in 5-star S Malaki Starks and 4-star LB Jalon Walker. While the writing was seemingly on the wall for Starks, it was a surprise to hear that Walker was going elsewhere considering he had been believed to be a Clemson lean for more than a year.
