Four-star Florida wide receiver Troy Stellato signs National Letter of Intent

★★★★ Troy Stellato - 6’1, 172 - Cardinal Gibbons High School, Fort Lauderdale, FL

Moments ago, Clemson picked up another great prospect as four-star wideout Troy Stellato‍ faxed in his National Letter of Intent.

Stellato’s signature brings Clemson another top prospect from the Sunshine State. Stellato visited Clemson during the Elite Junior Day in March.

The Fort Lauderdale, Florida native, attends Cardinal Gibbons High School and had nothing but good things to say about both the Tigers after committing over Ohio State in June.

“I kind of fell in love with everything they preach about and how they run their program. I felt like there wasn’t another program like it. They produce great wide receivers,” Stellato said.

Asked about why he picked the Tigers, Stellato noted that Coach Swinney and the environment just seemed to feel right.

“I feel like you couldn’t go wrong with each, but I had a gut feeling that’s where I wanted to be. I love everything about Clemson. I love the atmosphere,” Stellato said. “Fell in love with Coach Swinney and Coach Grisham. I can’t wait to get to work with him.”

Asked about the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on his recruitment, Stellato noted that his final visit was to Tiger Town and that it was a big deal.

“It was a huge factor because it was my last visit,” Stellato said. “They told me a lot of things that I wanted to hear. It felt like home. I didn’t want to be anywhere else.”
