Recruiting still going ‘great’ for Tigers amid COVID-19 pandemic

On Wednesday, the NCAA made the decision to extend its recruiting dead period through May 31 after initially suspending all in-person recruiting until at least April 15 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Even though prospects can’t visit college campuses right now, and coaches won’t be able to visit high schools to see prospects this spring as they usually would have, Dabo Swinney nonetheless feels good about how things are going for his program in recruiting.

“Recruiting is great,” Clemson’s head coach said during a media teleconference Friday.

With that said, Swinney does wish the Tigers had the chance to host recruits for their spring game, which was originally scheduled for tomorrow, April 4, but of course won’t be played now.
