Last fall, on Sept. 24, four-star offensive lineman Marcus Tate made the decision to end his recruitment and commit to Clemson.
Looking back on it, he couldn’t be happier that he did.
“I’m glad I did it when I did it,” Tate told The Clemson Insider recently. “I don’t have to worry about a bunch of coaches texting me anymore, like all the attention from everybody. My recruitment is now just focused on one school. So, in terms of being a recruit, it’s kind of made life easy because only one or two teams will text me, so I’m really not bombarded by text messages or people texting me every day like that anymore.
