How to land a 5-star: Clemson's approach sets it apart

The addition of four recent 5-star commits has Clemson’s 2020 recruiting class currently sitting atop the team rankings and it doesn’t appear the Tigers will slow down anytime soon. What sets Clemson apart? As it turns out, it’s more than football.

The Tigers landed 5-star quarterback DJ Uiagalelei Sunday afternoon, continuing a recent run on 5-stars for head coach Dabo Swinney and his staff. Uiagalelei plays at one of the top high school programs in the state of California in St. John Bosco, and the coaches at Bosco have seen plenty of college coaches walk through their doors on the recruiting trail.
