Clemson jumps to No. 1 for Sunshine State standout
Clemson made a big move for a standout prospect from the Sunshine State on Thursday when it extended an offer to Winter Park (Fla.) 2021 safety Dakota Mitchell.
Mitchell (6-0, 180) was ecstatic upon receiving the offer.
“One of the best feelings out of all the offers I got,” he told The Clemson Insider. “Clemson is BIG TIME, I’m just so excited right now.”
Clemson assistant coach Todd Bates, Mitchell’s area recruiter, stopped by Winter Park High School on Thursday before defensive coordinator Brent Venables informed Mitchell of his opportunity to play for the Tigers.
