**Clemson Pulls Off Shocking Steal, Lands Top247 WR Naeem Burroughs in Bold Recruiting Move**
In a move that’s already shaking up the recruiting landscape, Clemson just pulled off one of the most surprising commitments of the 2025 cycle—landing Top247 wide receiver Naeem Burroughs. The Florida native was thought to be leaning elsewhere, but in a twist few saw coming, he’s now headed to Death Valley.
Burroughs, a 4-star standout and one of the most electric playmakers in the country, has been turning heads with his elite route running, breakaway speed, and ability to torch secondaries. Several SEC powers had him high on their board, and many insiders believed he’d stay closer to home. But Dabo Swinney and the Tigers had other plans.
This isn’t just a win—it’s a statement. Clemson, which has faced criticism in recent years for slipping behind on the recruiting trail, just reminded everyone that they’re still a major player when it comes to pulling top-tier talent.
Sources say Burroughs was blown away by his visit to Clemson, citing the program’s culture, NFL development, and the offensive scheme as major selling points. He’ll join a loaded receiver room and could become an instant-impact player once he steps on campus.
The commitment is a gut punch to several SEC schools that were banking on landing Burroughs. Florida, Florida State, and Auburn were all in the mix—and now they’re left wondering how they let this one get away.
Clemson fans, celebrate. Haters, take note. Naeem Burroughs is the real deal, and this commitment just reignited the fire in Clemson’s recruiting engine.
This one’s going to sting for a while—for everyone not wearing orange.
**Stay tuned—this shake-up might just be the start.**
