Late night note

Four-star Martels Carter Jr. has a Clemson offer at the safety spot in the 2025 class. Co-DC Mickey Conn stopped by to see him at his high school in Kentucky earlier today. Carter told me that he's now planning a spring visit to Clemson.Clemson CBs coach Mike Reed stopped in to visit 2025 DB Kaleb Lanier today at Decatur HS in Georgia. Lanier doesn't have an offer but told me he plans to visit Clemson on March 9. The Tigers need to expand their board at CB soon, and Lanier is an offer candidate in a state that Reed recruits exceptionally well in (think Avieon Terrell, Shelton Lewis, etc.).New OL coach Matt Luke is relentless on the trail right now. He stopped by Ziyare Addison's school in Florida to visit the four-star. Addison posted a stylish selfie of Luke posing alone in his locker, which sparked a Twitter conversation between uncommitted three-star OL Mal Waldrep (a junior day visitor) and Blake Hebert (2025 Clemson QB commit). Luke is on a roll and these recruits seem to love his style and sense of humor. What a fantastic addition he's been to the staff.

National Average Rating

The National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services, along with a Clemson Sports Talk rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect, which is then normalized to fit the Clemson Sports Talk Rating 100-point scale.

The intent of this rating is to provide Clemson Sports Talk readers with a comprehensive snapshot of how individual prospects rank nationally.

Staff Predictions

The predictions represent which school each staff member believes will ultimately sign the recruit, and the confidence meter represents his level of certainty in that outcome.
