Amare Adams, the defensive lineman for South Florence, has pledged his allegiance to the Clemson Tigers for 2025. Adams committed to Clemson in December 2023 over schools such as Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida and LSU.

Adams confirmed that he won't be taking any more visits as he has already made his decision.

"I’m not taking any visits after this.. I’m all in at Clemson," Adams said (via Anna Adams of 247Sports).

Per 247Sports, Adams is presently positioned as the 7th-best defensive lineman and the 99th-best player overall in the class of 2025. Furthermore, he holds the top spot as the best player in South Carolina.

Adams had nothing but great things to say about the school after his previous visit to Clemson last year.

"I really loved it!" Adams said after the visit. "It meant more than me just being a football player. The highlight was practice and spending time with Coach Eason."

Amare Adams is the fifth player to commit to the 2025 recruiting class of Clemson. He will join the team along with four-star running back Gideon Davidson from Virginia, four-star quarterback Blake Hebert from Massachusetts, four-star tight end Logan Brooking from Georgia, and four-star interior offensive lineman Easton Ware, also from Virginia.
