As Tigerillustrated.com unveiled earlier this evening, Wesley (6-3, 230) made an official visit on campus Friday.
Per our intel, he checked out Texas Tech last week as well.
The West Orange (N.J.) St. Peter’s Prep product registered 33 tackles and six sacks this past season for the Bison.
As we documented, Clemson had been scheduled to entertain Tulane’s Harvey Dyson on Thursday. But the Tigers cancelled that appearance.
Our understanding is Clemson considers Wesley an intriguing sleeper with better length, and he brings pass-rush ability to the table.
