Elliott says NCAA-mandated dead period unfortunate for recruits

High school football juniors and seniors are not only having to navigate the pitfalls of trying to play the game they love during these difficult times, but also many are being asked to make college decisions on schools they have yet to visit -- something that Clemson offensive coordinator Tony Elliott says is unfortunate.

One current prospect who is close to making a decision is 4-star safety Andrew Mukuba out of Austin (TX) LBJ, who is expected to announce on Oct. 1. The Tigers are firmly in the mix, even though Mukuba has never set foot on the Clemson campus, and likely won’t get that chance any time in the near future.
