Ever since he took over as head coach of the Clemson Tigers, Dabo Swinney has been an absolute stud out on the recruiting trail. Every year, the veteran coach puts together sensational classes for fans to enjoy. He's already off to a strong start for 2022.

Swinney is now up to four pledges for '22 following the addition of 4-star quarterback Cade Klubnik on Tuesday. Klubnik picked up more than 30 offers throughout his recruitment, but Clemson was able to win this battle for his services.

Throughout his process, the 6-2, 185-pounder landed scholarships from Clemson, Arizona State, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Miami, Penn State, Texas and many others. However, as soon as the Tigers offered him on Feb. 26, it was made clear they'd be serious players in his recruitment.

Well, things reached a new level on Tuesday with Klubnik shutting things down and picking Clemson. This is a big-time get for the ACC powerhouse.
