CLEMSON — It's been business as usual on the recruiting trail for coach Dabo Swinney and Clemson football .
Swinney, who received criticism for not landing a transfer player in the 2024 cycle , has stuck to his bread and butter, landing high school recruits who can develop into impact players. After having the 11th-ranked 2024 recruiting class, according to 247Sports, Clemson looks to recreate that success in 2025.
