After Saturday’s junior day, Clemson took a big step toward landing one of the top Lone Star State prospects.
Very rarely – if ever – have the Tigers won a Texas recruiting battle, but with RJ Mickens high on Clemson, that streak might end.
The 4-star safety out of Southlake (TX) Carroll is listed as the top prospect at his position according to Rivals and is No. 58 in the ESPNJR 300. He made his return trip to Clemson with his parents for this past weekend’s junior day and returned home with the Tigers at – or near – the top of his list.
