Hutcheson is coming off a multi-day visit at Florida, where he got to spend more time around vaunted OL coach Phil Trautwein. Last month, he was back at Clemson. The Tigers have been pushing for Hutcheson for a while and he’s still considering the ACC program.
“The vibe that I got at Clemson was really family-like,” Hutcheson told Rivals’ Chad Simmons. “Everyone there really loves being there and loves the place, not only on the field but off the field, and you can really feel that as soon as you get on campus.
“Clemson is definitely a school that I am taking seriously.”
Back in the fall, Hutcheson told Simmons that he didn’t want to commit too early and wasn’t going to rush a decision. Naming finalists is a big step toward making a commitment, but it remains to be seen when he’ll take his name off the board.
