No. 2 recruit Xavier Thomas after car wreck: always, always wear your seat belt

In response to the many Clemson fans and fellow athletes admonishing him for not wearing a seat belt, he added:
Thomas said on Snapchat that he’d been driving solo in West Virginia after dropping off his sisters.
Thankfully, he’s okay.
Clemson actually holds commitments from both Thomas and the only 2018 recruit with a higher rating, QB Trevor Lawrence.
