Recruiting Notes For Jan. 31: Xavier Thomas on Clemson rumor; Kereon Joyner update
Clemson has a knack of landing a major commitment for the next class on signing day for the current class. So, with DE Xavier Thomas of Florence and IMG Academy in Florida having visited last Saturday, and apparently having a very good time with some IMG teammates, a rumor materialized that Thomas could be that guy for Clemson Wednesday. “No chance at all. Have no clue where that came from,” Thomas said. Thomas said before leaving Florence for Florida that he would eventually choose either Clemson or USC. He said he will visit USC soon but did not know when.
QB Dakereon Joyner visited USC earlier this month but did not make it to Clemson’s junior day this past weekend. He has upcoming visits to Georgia and NC State. As for the USC visit, Joyner had another good experience. “He enjoyed it, he really liked it,” said his coach Steve LaPrad. He cut it short because our football banquet was that Saturday night. I think he stayed with OrTre (Smith) while he was up there. They always threat him good up there.” Joyner also has visited Virginia Tech. Tech recruiters were in to see Joyner earlier this month and Clemson recruiter Tony Elliott checked in on him last Friday. NC State also has been in.
LB Dax Hollifield of Shelby, NC picked up a LSU offer Monday. He was at USC Saturday for another unofficial visit. “I thought the visit was great. Hutzler and Bentley were by my side the whole day and it made me feel pretty special. I also are lunch with Muschamp so that was pretty good, and they are still in my top three.” He has had the Gamecocks, Virginia Tech and North Carolina at the top of his list. Stanford is now recruiting him hard and he plans to visit there.
USC offered DB Jordan Miner of Tampa.
Alabama offered DE Stephon Wynn Jr. of Anderson and IMG Academy. He was at Clemson last Saturday. He also has a USC offer.
USC offered DE Kingsley Enagbare of Hapeville, GA.
USC target OL Dylan Wonnum of Stone Mountain, GA was offered by Alabama.
