Clemson just flipped the script in the portal—Tigers continue to surge with defenders

The defensive overhaul keeps rolling for the Clemson Tigers.

Clemson has landed Corey Myrick, a productive safety from Southern Miss, giving the Tigers five transfer portal commitments in a two-day span — all on the defensive side of the ball.

Myrick committed while visiting campus Wednesday.

Who Clemson Is Getting

Myrick brings size, range and proven production to a secondary that was a clear offseason priority.

Height/Weight: 6-foot-3, 200 pounds

2025 stats: 91 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, two interceptions

A former Marshall transfer, Myrick broke out at Southern Miss as a do-it-all safety, adding four pass breakups and a forced fumble to his stat line.
