Clemson reaches out to son of former Tiger

Buford (Ga.) safety Jake Pope holds more than a dozen scholarship offers and has been in contact with numerous programs since Sept. 1, when college coaches were allowed to start actively recruiting prospects in the class of 2022 per NCAA rules.

Clemson safeties coach Mickey Conn, who is very familiar with the Peach State as the former longtime Grayson (Ga.) High School head coach, is among the coaches that have reached out to Pope since the beginning of this month.

“Coach Conn has texted me a couple times so far,” Pope told The Clemson Insider.
