The Clemson coaching staff picked up its second offensive line commit for the 2021 recruiting cycle in two days Tuesday when Tate, out of Ft. Lauderdale (FL) University High, gave his verbal pledge to Clemson via Twitter.
Tate picked the Tigers over several other high-profile programs, including Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Auburn, LSU, Michigan, Penn State, Texas A&M and Tennessee among others.
Clemson offered in June when Tate and his family visited the Clemson campus for head coach Dabo Swinney’s high school camp, and it was on that visit that Tate knew Clemson was his landing spot.
