Five-Star Defensive End Myles Murphy Commits to Clemson

The defending national champions added another dose of impact talent on Friday as five-star defensive end Myles Murphy commited to Clemson. Murphy is the No. 8 prospect in the class of 2020 and the No. 2 defensive end, according to 247Sports.

Clemson holds the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation ahead of LSU and Alabama. Murphy is the second-ranked player in the class to verbally commit to play for head coach Dabo Swinney, trailing defensive tackle Bryan Bresee, the nation's No. 2 recruit.

Swinney has been hot on the recruiting trail of late, landing the ACC's top recruiting class in 2019 and 2018.
