TNET: First 2022 commitment catches Clemson coaches by surprise

There are times when a commitment catches the Clemson coaches by surprise, and that was the case Wednesday when 4-star offensive lineman Blake Miller of Strongsville (OH) called offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell.

Miller is the first commitment for the Tigers in the 2022 recruiting cycle.

Miller released a top-five list last Tuesday featuring Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan, Florida and Auburn, but a recent conversation with head coach let Miller know it was time to pull the proverbial trigger on a commitment.

“I was talking to Coach Swinney, and he said something that really stood out to me,” Miller told TigerNet Wednesday evening.
