Tigers impress in-state DB during junior day

Standout in-state defensive back Andru Phillips from Mauldin (S.C.) High School made his first unofficial visit to Clemson on Saturday for the program’s junior day.

The second-ranked cornerback in the Palmetto State arrived on campus around 9:30 a.m. and stayed for around eight hours. The class of 2020 prospect was accompanied by his father, Carlos — who played football for Kentucky in the 1980s — as well as his mother and sister.

“They thought the same thing I thought,” Phillips said. “It was great.”

Phillips (6-0, 180), who holds over a dozen offers and has seen his recruitment take off this year, had nothing but positive things to say about his experience at Clemson.
