Latest ESPN Class Recruiting Rankings


by - Assoc. Editor -

Clemson is ranked #9th in ESPN's latest 2016 football class rankings that were released on Wednesday morning.

This is a two spot decrease from Clemson's initial ESPN team ranking at #7.

ACC schools - Florida State (#1) and Miami (#2) are battling for the top overall class so far in the ESPN list. Duke is having an impressive early recruiting start with a #13 ranking.

However, the Tigers are no slouch either on the national recruiting front.

"Clemson is becoming a fixture in the top 10 under Dabo Swinney," ESPN Recruiting on Clemson's recruiting. "Running back and No. 30 overall Tavien Feaster got the ball rolling with a commitment on national signing day and has since been joined by No. 22 Rahshaun Smith. No. 199 Zerrick Cooper is yet another talented quarterback headed to Clemson. No. 229 Tavares Chase is yet another talented receiver from the Tampa area set to play for the Tigers."

Georgia (#4 overall), USC (#7 overall) and UCLA (#8 overall) are three schools that are trending upward in the ESPN recruiting rankings.
