He had been committed to James Madison since August but reopened his recruitment Friday upon netting the two ACC offers.

Clemson began demonstrating interest in Green early in his junior season as the Tigers amplified their pursuit of his teammate and close friend, receiver Antonio Williams.

Green attended multiple games during the 2021 season, a junior day in the spring as well as Clemson's April spring game.

The Tigers, though, first dug in several national names but still found themselves without a running back late in this cycle.

Swinney called Green on Thursday and informed him that with Kobe Pace entering the transfer portal, Green was next in Clemson's queue.

Green had a breakout season as a junior, rushing for 1,581 yards and 32 touchdowns while averaging 9.2 yards per carry.

Without the same caliber of passing game in complement, Green became an even greater presence as a senior, tallying 2,272 rushing yards and 33 scores while averaging 9.8 yards per carry in helping Dutch Fork to yet another state championship.

Irmo running back Jarvis Green's stellar senior season paid off with a Clemson offer.  Now he's a Tiger after shutting down his recruitment on Tuesday.

Green also registered 36 catches for 527 yards and six receiving touchdowns this past season.

He becomes Clemson's first running back acquisition for this class, with the Tigers also after Roanoke (Ala.) Handley's Jamarius "Jay" Haynes -- a Tigerillustrated.com projection to Clemson.

Green also pushes Clemson's commitment total to 24, with three of the last four coming from in-state prospects.

Clemson's recruiting class ranks seventh nationally according to Rivals.com.
