ESPN recruiting analyst compares Clemson commit to All-American TE

Clemson four-star tight end commitment Jake Briningstool and his Ravenwood (Brentwood, Tenn.) team played against IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) on Friday night in a game that was nationally televised on ESPNU.

During the broadcast, ESPN national football recruiting analyst Craig Haubert compared Briningstool to Iowa State redshirt junior tight end Charlie Kolar, a first-team All-Big 12 performer and second-team All-American last season who was one of eight semifinalists for the John Mackey Award given annually to the most outstanding college tight end.

“Kolar has been really successful at Iowa State,” Haubert said.
