Five-star wide receiver Julian Fleming announced his commitment date on Friday.

Fleming will choose among Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama, Pen State and Georgia on May 31.

The Tigers were previously in a group with Ohio State, Penn State, Alabama, Georgia and Oregon. Fleming visited Clemson last in March for Junior Day.

“I loved the coaches,” Fleming said of his visit to Clemson. “They’ve all been there for a really long time. Coach Dabo’s (Swinney) energy is for real and I like him a lot. I like Coach (Jeff) Scott a lot. I got to talk to Tee Higgins and Justyn Ross and heard about what it’s like as a player. I had a really good time. One hundred percent very attractive.

“From the football aspect, they put a bunch of receivers in the league. They really develop them. Honestly, they develop great young men. You talk to some of the players and you can tell they are all intelligent and they are good people. Clemson has done a great job of doing that.”

Fleming was named All-USA second team by USA Today after tallying in 45 catches for 777 yards and 10 touchdowns last season. He averaged 23 yards per catch with 33 scores in the previous two seasons.
