Tigers still in the mix as top safety nears decision

Can the Tigers land another top safety?

A pair of defensive prospects high on Clemson’s recruiting board are set to make their commitment announcements this week. Safety Malaki Starks (6-2 190) of Jefferson, Georgia will hold a ceremony at the town’s civic Center Thursday at 6:00 p.m. He is down to Clemson, Georgia and Alabama.

Linebacker Jalon Walker (6-2 220) of Salisbury, North Carolina is set to announce Sunday with a final group of Clemson, North Carolina, Georgia, Ohio State, Alabama and Auburn.

Starks said he has not yet made a decision, but Clemson has made a strong impression on him with safeties coach Mickey Conn doing the bulk of the recruiting.
