Next-Level Wideout Four-Star Beaux Collins joins WRU

★★★★ Beaux Collins - 6’4, 195 - St. John Bosco, South Central Los Angeles, CA

For Clemson football, the state of California seems to be the place they want to be more and more every year, and today that continued with wide receiver Beaux Collins‍ signing his National Letter of Intent.

Collins joins Troy Stellato‍ and Dacari Collins‍ in a trio of high-profile wideouts joining Tyler Grisham’s room in Tiger Town.

Back in January, Collins committed to Clemson and will join his former high school quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei in Tiger Town, but Collins’ father told us that wasn’t the reason they are joining the Orange and White.

"D.J. told Beaux not to pick Clemson because of him," D'Andre Collins, Beaux's father told us. "He made his decision based on where he sits at his position." The 6’4 widout committed during Clemson’s Elite Junior Day and could be a breakout player for the Tigers next year.

If Dabo Swinney has his way, Collins will not be the only signature from the Golden State as five-star defensive lineman Korey Foreman‍ will also sign somewhere today before announcing his landing spot on January 2.
