Devonaire Clarington, 6-5 222 lbs. Here are the details. 4-star on all the services. Generally a top-175 commit. #75 on ESPN, #203 on 247, #231 on scouts, around top-275 in rivals. The composite rank by 247 (industry average) is #168.

It seems ESPN thinks very highly of him, as the 3rd best TE in the nation, even ahead of the darling of the other services, Kris Clark whom we were after (he was very high on us, but decided to stick to his Meatchicken commitment once Harbaugh was picked)

In fact ESPN thinks very highly of a lot of our commits, as they have Malik, Clarington, Gentry, Wheeler and Elliott in the national top-100.

By the way, generally rivals rankings are worse for Charlie (just like they used to be great for Mack recruits in most years). Those guys are just way too slow in evaluating the players who do better in the senior year, I think...

He has great hands, but the guy played defense also, which means he can be coached well to be a blocker to.

Awesome. We need a good TE.

"@max_olson: Devonaire Clarington: "What (Strong) did at Louisville is exactly what he’s going to do at Texas. That’s all I’ve gotta say.”

Yes - TE is on the upswing after years of being forgotten. Swaim's blocking will be missed but the Horns need more receiving threats at the position.

Welcome, DC!
