Clemson football: Tigers more than likely out on two 5-stars

The 2021 Clemson football recruiting class is filling up quickly and there will be some big names that do not make the cut.

Unlike many other big programs across the country, Clemson football does not over sign their recruiting classes and head coach Dabo Swinney is strict on the numbers that they take at each position. After the last several commitments for the 2021 class, that means the Tigers will miss out on several 5-stars unless Swinney suddenly changes his thoughts on recruiting.

Over the last couple of weeks, the Tigers have picked up commitments from 4-star wide receiver Troy Stellato and 4-star defensive end Zaire Patterson.
