Talented in-state DE getting interest from Tigers

Dillon (S.C.) 2019 defensive end Shamar McCollum, an emerging name on the recruiting scene, is getting early interest from Clemson and visited for the first time a week ago.

McCollum (6-4, 195) was invited to compete at the Dabo Swinney Camp and did so last Wednesday.

“I enjoyed being at Clemson and competing a lot,” he said. “They were my favorite team coming up, and I just want to thank Coach Swinney for giving me a chance to compete at a wonderful camp.”

McCollum broke out as a sophomore last season, when he racked up 80 tackles, 38 tackles for loss and 15 sacks and recorded an interception.
