Lilburn (Ga.) wideout Mike Matthews was one of three five-star prospects in Clemson over the weekend.
By fans. By media.
By the fellow high-profile Peach State prospects with whom Brown has crossed paths at camps and school visits the last two years.
Several important ones, in fact, spent considerable time with and around Brown on the official visit weekend.
Lilburn (Ga.) Parkview five-star athlete Mike Matthews, Buford (Ga.) five-star defensive end Eddrick Houston and Buford (Ga.) five-star safety KJ Bolden among them.
Matthews (6-1, 180), ranked No. 7 in the country, is now being exclusively pursued as a receiver by Clemson.
Tennessee has been trending amid industry speculation and we would tell you there are indeed people around Matthews propagating that impression.
The Vols may well wind up the choice and are slated to draw the final official visit June 23-25.
But we've seen USC get deemed to have momentum too, and our feedback contends that just isn't the case.
Sentiment we've collected is that this is still Clemson versus Tennessee, and we'll find out the preference in due time.
