teammates in 2004 at Leon High in Tallahassee...Durrell Barry, Elsmore Gabriel and Phillip Merling were all

teammates at Fork Union Military Academy in Virginia in 2004...Chris Chancelor and Demerick Chancelor are

brothers and were obviously high school teammates...eight states are represented on Clemson’s signees roster,

led by South Carolina (9), Florida (5), Georgia (4) and Alabama (3)...Clemson has one signee each from Virginia,

New York, Tennessee and North Carolina.
