2023 DB Braxton Myers appeared for Clemson's Elite Junior Day, and All Clemson caught up with the SI All-American candidate to redo the trip.
The 2022 recruiting class is now on the books and the Clemson coaching staff is really starting to ramp up efforts with several 2023 goals.
One of those targets is defensive back, Braxton Myers. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound prospect from Coppell, Texas was present for Clemson's Elite Junior Day, an event reserved for Tigers priority players, and Myers told All Clemson that the trip was much better. Couldn't be.
"My journey with Clemson exceeded my expectations," Myers said.
Myers was officially offered the offer a week before the event and the top-100 talent and SI All-American candidate said that knowing how selective Clemson is in the hiring process makes the offer mean even more.
"I was so excited to receive the offer," Myers said. "Because I know it's a very difficult proposition to get."
While some recruiting services list him as a safety, Myers said the Tigers are recruiting him as a cornerback, and that his relationship with cornerback coach Mike Reid has started off great.
"My relationship with Coach Reed is growing," Myers said. "And he looks very charming."
Myers said he looks forward to being back on campus for spring games and some of the other schools outside of Clemson that are currently recruiting him the hardest are USC, Michigan and Florida states.
Although no timetable has been given for the decision, Myers already knows some of the qualities he is looking for in a school.
"I'm looking for good academic programs," Myers said. "A football program that is competitive and coaches who will inspire me to be the best I can be on and off the field."
