THE WEST ZONE message board | SHOP NOW: DEALS on CLEMSON apparel

1. As we’ve framed, Clemson's staff has earmarked this week’s 12:20 p.m. game against The Citadel as the home game it wanted to bring in priority targets for official visits – not this past weekend’s Florida State contest.

But the one recruit this cycle they did have on campus was significant.

Atlanta (Ga.) Carver four-star safety Quindarious Monday made his long-anticipated unofficial visit for a game.

Monday (6-3, 175) was on the verge of announcing a Clemson commitment last summer when an Auburn visit spawned an abrupt pledge there.

Our intel -- combined with intuition about an emotional, sudden decision – pointed to this recruitment at least not being over. Sources close to the prospect were adamant that Clemson would get a look, it was just a matter of when.
