Clemson has landed yet another big-time recruit.
Five-star all-purpose running back Will Shipley announced on Tuesday that he is committing to Clemson. Shipley chose the Tigers over Notre Dame. He also was considering Stanford, North Carolina and N.C. State, but the inability to visit those programs for official visits hurt their chances of landing the back.
Shipley announced the news in a video release:

“Clemson is just the place for me,” Shipley told Rivals. “It was the people that make it up, the culture of the locker room, the atmosphere, the game day experience. There are so many things that went into it for me but when looking at the big picture I just didn’t see a place that really showed my family and I better.”
Shipley attends Weddington High School in Matthews, North Carolina. He is a member of the class of 2021.
Here is a highlight reel of Shipley in action:
