Clemson receives crystal ball prediction for the No. 2 overall player in the 2025 class

After this crystal ball prediction, Clemson may be the favorite for five-star offensive tackle David Sanders.

Dabo Swinney and the Clemson football program have been scorching hot recruiting in the 2025 class, and things could get even hotter for the Tigers sooner rather than later.

Clemson is firmly in the hunt for five-star offensive tackle David Sanders out of Providence Day School (Charlotte, N.C.), and they may just be the favorite for the highly touted tackle after this news. On Wednesday, the Tigers received a crystal ball prediction to land Sanders by 247Sports Notre Dame Insider Tom Loy. Excellent news for the Tigers seeing a crystal ball prediction for Sanders, even if it isn’t from a Clemson insider. Loy is currently 26/26 on his predictions in this class, a clean 100%.

According to 247Sports composite rankings, Sanders is the No. 1 tackle and the No. 2 overall player in the 2025 class. The Tigers need help on the offensive line, and who better to assist than the top offensive lineman in the upcoming class.

Truly huge news on a Wednesday for the program, but it doesn’t by any means guarantee Sanders’ signing. Clemson is trending in the right direction here.

Clemson offers 4-star linebacker Mark Iheanachor

One of the top linebackers in the 2025 class has received an offer from Clemson.

Four-star linebacker Mark Iheanachor took to social media Tuesday to announce that Clemson has offered him a scholarship. Clemson needs depth at linebacker, and that’s what they’re targeting here.

According to 247Sports, Iheanachor is the No. 33 linebacker in the 2025 class, earning him that four-star label. The Tigers added Sammy Brown and Drew Woodaz in their 2024 class, but there are some clear needs remaining at the position. This is one to monitor closely as the Tigers’ defense continues to build and work towards remaining elite.

Clemson offers 4-star edge rusher Chinedu Onyeagoro

A 4-star edge rusher in the 2025 class is on the Tigers’ radar.

Four-star edge rusher Chinedu Onyeagoro, out of King Drew Magnet High School (Los Angeles, Calif.), took to social media Tuesday to announce that Clemson has offered him a scholarship. The Tigers look to continue to bolster their electric defensive line and pass rush with another member in the 2025 class.

According to 247Sports site rankings, Onyeagoro currently ranks as the No. 23 edge and the No. 243 overall recruit in the class. Onyeagoro didn’t start playing football until his sophomore year, and he primarily played basketball throughout his life. A transition that is not uncommon for some athletes.

Standing at 6 feet tall and weighing 200 pounds, the rising senior made a pivotal visit to Clemson during its March 9 junior day. With his verbal commitment, Clemson’s 2025 class now boasts a total of 11 pledges.

Following his decommitment from the Bulldogs on Jan. 21, Clemson swiftly extended an offer just a day later, seizing the opportunity to secure Harris’s talents. This is a huge commitment for the Clemson program that continues to prove they can recruit at an elite level.

Trinity Christian Academy (Addison, Texas) three-star offensive lineman Jaylan Beckley took to social media Friday to announce his decommitment from Clemson. After committing on January 28th, Beckley no longer plans to join the Tigers.

“I am so thankful to Coach Swinney, Coach Riley, and the entire coaching and support staff at Clemson,” Beckley wrote in a social media post. “There are so many people that took the time to recruit me and made a sincere effort to build a relationship with me and my family. I met some incredible people at Clemson, including the other recruits, awesome Clemson fans, reporters & more – I truly wish them all the very best and I hope to maintain some of those relationships going forward.

“After much prayer, reflection, and countless discussions with my family and mentors, I’ve decided that I need more time to make this very big decision about where I will spend the next 3-5 years for my college career. The final decision was mine alone, and I do not take it lightly. I have nothing but love for Tiger Town. Thank you for all that continue to support me on this journey, I’m extremely blessed to have some incredible opportunities ahead. My recruitment is officially re-opened.”

The Tigers will look to continue to bolster their offensive line elsewhere in the 2025 class.

Clemson named among the hottest team’s recruiting in the 2025 class

Clemson’s 2025 class is shaping up excellently early in the recruiting cycle.

Dabo Swinney and his coaching staff are showcasing exceptional recruiting prowess for the 2025 class at Clemson. With 11 commitments already secured, the Tigers are assembling a formidable lineup of talent from across the nation. The caliber of players already committed to the program reflects Clemson’s unwavering commitment to excellence and signals a promising future for the team.

From top-tier prospects to promising newcomers, Clemson’s recruiting efforts underscore their enduring strength and determination for the seasons ahead. The Tigers’ ability to attract top talent speaks volumes about their status as a powerhouse in college football, setting the stage for continued success on the field.

According to 247Sports, the Tigers are one of the hottest teams recruiting in 2025.

When you look at this Clemson recruiting class, the strength is in the trenches on both sides of the ball. They landed three big, functional pass rushers. Offensively, Brayden Jacobs, Easton Ware and Jaylan Beckley are large, athletic offensive linemen. When a kid commits to Clemson, they normally don’t waiver and decommit. This feels like a top-10 class. This is an excellent start. It starts with those two new assistant coaches in Nick Eason and Matt Luke.

No doubt an excellent start, Clemson’s staff changes paying dividends in an area where the Tigers are desperate to succeed. If they aren’t going to be active in the transfer portal, they need to hit the recruiting trail.

While the Tigers’ 2024 class is strong, the 2025 class looks special.

Clemson’s 2025 Recruiting Class Soars in ESPN’s Rankings to No.2 in the Country

Clemson football’s 2025 recruiting class is one of the best in the country so far.

Dabo Swinney and the Clemson coaching staff are doing a phenomenal job recruiting in the 2025 class. 

The Tigers currently have 11 commitments in the 2025 class, with some of the top players across the country already on board with this program and prepared for a future with the team. From top to bottom, Clemson is proving that they are going nowhere with how strong this class is building. 

ESPN recently updated their 2025 recruiting rankings ($$$), with Clemson jumping from No.3 to No.2 in the country. It isn’t a huge jump, but there wasn’t much room to go up with this class soaring right now. 

The Tigers have checked several boxes with commitments at different positions. They already have a pair of running backs in this class in Davidson and in-state prospect Marquise Henderson. Davidson has a nice blend of size, speed and power that he used to rush for 2,700 yards with 43 touchdowns this season. Henderson, at 5-foot-10, 170 pounds, is more slightly built but is explosive with big-play speed and was very productive as a junior, rushing for over 2,300 yards.

Quarterback Blake Hebert missed most of his junior season with an injury, but he has good size and a smooth, compact delivery. He moves well and can extend plays. On defense, Clemson has already landed several ranked defensive linemen led by Watford, who gives the Tigers a lengthy player with good initial quickness who can develop into a disruptive edge rusher. In the trenches, defensive tackle Amare Adams is the top-ranked player in the state.

Clemson is trending up right now, and it is a beautiful thing to see for fans and the program. This coaching staff will look to continue to build on this strong start.
