Last month, Plantation (Fla.) American Heritage four-star cornerback Gregory Thomas made his way to Clemson to visit Dabo Swinney and the Tigers.

The trip resulted in an offer for the 6-foot-2, 185-pounder. The Tigers continue to establish their presence in what looks to be an ACC battle, as Thomas announced on Saturday that he’s locked in an official visit for May 31-June 2.

“My visit was great,” he told On3’s Steve Wiltfong after tripping in April. “I loved the town and coaches and everything. I think the thing that stood out the most was the hospitality and how much of a priority the coaches told me I was.

“They aren’t a school that goes out and gets 100 kids, They selectively choose and build with what they have. Which is something I like. I love the culture they have as well.”

Clemson joins Florida State as programs to lock in OVs with Thomas. The Seminoles have been a major player for the in-state defensive back and are currently trending heavily for his commitment in the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM). Miami is also in the mix for the blue-chipper.

“It was a great visit … it was good seeing the practice environment and seeing how the coaches are and how the practices are run,” Thomas told Warchant after visiting FSU in March. “It was good, and I liked what I saw.”

Thomas is the No. 269 overall prospect and No. 26 CB in the 2025 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 41 player in Florida.

Clemson Class Breakdown

Clemson’s 11-man class ranks No. 4 in the nation and consists of 10 blue-chip prospects, including the nation’s No. 28 recruit in Norfolk (Va.) Maury four-star EDGE Ari Watford. Watford pledged to the Tigers near the end of January.

“Clemson is a very unique place,” Watford told On3. “The people there and the family-oriented culture Coach Swinney has built stood out to me. People go to Clemson go for the right reasons and that’s something I’ve wanted to be a part of growing up.”
