Georgia linebacker Tre Lamar commits to Clemson

Clemson continues to mine the state of Georgia for some of its top talent.

Linebacker Tre Lamar of Roswell committed Friday night to the Tigers while at the All-In Cookout. He’s the Tigers’ 11th commitment in the class and the fourth from the Peach State.

Lamar had narrowed his decision to Clemson and Auburn, and he visited both earlier in the the year. He also went to a game at Death Valley last season, so he had plenty of first-hand information on which to base his decision.

“I just had a good feeling about it and it just felt like the most comfortable place, a home away from home for me,” Lamar said. “I will fit in well. I definitely had a good feeling about it. I don’t have any little feelings about somewhere else. I definitely feel like Clemson was the right place.”

Lamar last season had 127 tackles and four sacks and is viewed by defensive coordinator as a middle linebacker.

“He said he wants another big middle linebacker and he likes my athleticism and stuff like that,” Lamar said.

Lamar will graduate in December and enroll in January. He said he is “100 percent committed and won’t be visiting anywhere else.”

He is considered a four-star prospect and the No. 15 player in the state of Georgia for this class, according to 247Sports’ Composite rating.
