Clemson drops a spot in the latest update to the SI recruiting rankings.

In this story:

While Clemson has most of its 2023 recruiting class already locked up, there are still a handful of spots to be filled.

With less than two months remaining before the start of the Early Signing Period, the Tigers still need, at a minimum, a RB and one more DE. It's also possible we see the staff add another OL and WR, depending on how things play out.

After securing the commitment of Misun "Tink" Kelley last week, Clemson now sits at 21 verbal pledges, and in the latest update to the SI 2023 Team Recruiting Rankings, the Tigers dropped a spot, down to No. 8. 

However, fellow ACC member Miami has been making moves of late, jumping two spots up to No. 7, giving the Hurricanes the top-rated class in the conference currently.

Offensive tackle Zechariah Owens announced a public departure from the class, only to rejoin it after additional consideration some four days later.
