Clemson has dropped a spot in the latest update to the SI 2023 team recruiting rankings.

After debuting at No. 6 in the initial rankings in August, the Tigers now currently sit at No. 7, after adding CB Shelton Lewis and SI99 member WR Ronan Hanafin.

The rankings focus on SI99 members, premium position prospects (quarterback, offensive tackle, pass rusher, cornerback), general quality at the top of the class and also positional units being constructed together while addressing team needs.
