No. 7 Clemson (4 Commits)

Jaron Blossomgame has finally left, and leaves Clemson with some questions surrounding their program. Who will be next?

Blossomgame was the man for nearly all of his four years, and now their program shifts to a new direction, looking for one of their four freshmen to step up.

2017 Commits:

  • A.J. Oliver (Central, SC): 6-4, 175 lbs, SG, Rank – NR
  • Aamir Simms (Dyke, VA): 6-8, 200 lbs, SF, Rank – NR
  • Malik William (Orlando, FL): 6-8, 200 lbs, PF, Rank – NR
  • Clyde Trapp (Hopkins, SC): 6-5, 188 lbs, SG, Rank – NR

With what is another slightly below average recruiting class, Brad Brownell needs a good year to step off of the hot seat.

They have not made the NCAA Tournament since 2011 and haven’t finished above fourth in the conference since the same year.
