Clemson held its ninth annual “All In Cookout” on site at the Allen Reeve’s Football complex on Friday July 26th and some of the nations top uncommitted prospects were in attendance. The Tigers also used this event to bring in on a majority of the Clemson 2020 committed class. A class that is ranked as high as #1 by many recruiting outlets nationwide, a class that includes no less than four (4) players ranked Five (5) Stars.

Coach Dabo Swinney and his staff have turned this “event” into one of the nation’s “highlights” every summer as one of the “look too” events every year as its reputation of drawing some of the nations top players each and every year is well deserved. The Staff goes out of their way to show the “Family” theme they are so famous for and in year nine the Tigers again drew a “The Top” players they sought still left on the 2020 recruiting board.

The Clemson Offensive line commitments were well represented and showed up in force to enjoy the cookout and play wiffle ball, basketball, putt putt and all sorts of themed and related games to go along with the “Cookout”. Players and family members are shown all the “bells and whistles” that make up the Allen Reeve’s Football Facility and get the time to spend one on one time with coaches that sometimes is not available during visits.
