View Full Profile from North Gwinnett(HS) has decided to commit to Clemson at a ceremony Wednesday night at his high school. He said "I would like to announce my commitment to Clemson University."

His top two schools were Clemson and Ohio State. Clemson was thought to be the front runner to land his services throughout his recruitment. The Tigers did a great job evaluating his talent early on and building a great relationship with Hyatt and his family.

Hyatt felt comfortable committing to Clemson after his visit last weekend at Clemson's junior day. He wanted to commit early so he could focus on his senior season and winning a state title.

He is a 5-star recruit by the major recruiting services and they all have him rated as the top OT in the nation (and top 2015 player in Georgia).

His uncle, Dan Benish, played for Clemson and in the NFL for the Atlanta Falcons and the Washington Redskins.

TigerNet is on location so we will have a full interview and pictures shortly.

Just when I didn't think today could get much better... It did.....GREAT DAY TO BE A TIGER!!!! #ClemsonFamily #CUDreamTeam15
