Dexter Lawrence, a five-star DT, announces his commitment to Clemson over Ohio State, others
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Urban Meyer is hoping to add a stud defensive tackle to his already stacked 2016 recruiting class.
He'll have to keep searching.
That's because five-star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence announced his commitment to Clemson on Monday during a ceremony at his high school.
The 6-foot-5, 330-pound prospect chose the Tigers over Ohio State, N.C. State, North Carolina, Alabama and Florida.
Rated the No. 2 defensive tackle in the 2016 class in the 247Sports composite rankings, Lawrence officially visited Ohio State on Nov. 21 for the Buckeyes' loss to Michigan State, but he was very busy on the recruiting circuit ever since.
