View Full Profile from Clayton N.C will announce his college decision tonight according to his twitter account. His final three schools appear to be Alabama, Clemson and Tennessee.

Clemson was his first college offer and Dan Brooks and Mike Reed have been recruiting him for the Tigers. Since then, he has had offers from schools such as Alabama, Florida, Florida State, North Carolina, Ohio State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, among others.

He told TigerNet about his visit to Clemson for Junior Day in early February: "One thing that really popped out at me was the family-type environment," he said. "Everybody is constantly raving about Clemson and I finally was able to experience that when we went down there to visit."

As a junior, he had 80 tackles and 7 sacks.

I'll be tweeting tonight where I'll be committing between 7:30-8 pm
