Elijah Daniel might or might not have decommitted from Clemson
Clemson appeared to have lost one of its elite defensive end recruits, with Rivals four-star Elijah Daniel tweeting he’s heading elsewhere. But now there’s a claim his account was “hacked.”

The Clemson Tigers are apparently down one of their many excellent defensive end recruits, with four-star Elijah Daniel of Indiana saying he's elected to explore his options some more. Daniel committed to the Tigers in June, just days after national No. 1 Robert Nkemdiche.

Could be a bad sign for Clemson’s chances of keeping Nkemdiche as well, especially with Ole Miss making such a strong push:
RE: @elijahdaniel6, One source told me Robert Nkemdiche would try and recruit Elijiah to come with him wherever he went.

The Tigers had a very nice collection of defensive line recruits with Daniel, Nkemdiche and Scott Pagano, but that’s dwindling now.
