Kevin Alexander took an official visit to Clemson this past weekend. Alexander had an in-home visit with head coach Tommy Bowden and his recruiter Dabo Swinney Monday night. Did Alexander commit to Clemson?

"Yes sir, I committed to Clemson."

Alexander chose the Tigers over Louisville, Maryland, and Tennessee. Why did Alexander decide to go with the Tigers.

"I felt comfortable with them. I came from my visit yesterday. I let Coach Bowden talk to my family. He told me to take my time and make a decision. I thought about it some more and decided to make go ahead and commit."

Will Alexander take any more official visits and are other schools still recruiting him?

"No more official visits. Louisville and Maryland are still recruiting me. I have talked to them since I got back from Clemson, but not since I committed."

Alexander's teammate CJ Spiller, arguably the nation's best running back, is on an official visit with Clemson right now. Alexander said he was able to speak with Spiller earlier in the day.

"He said he is having a good time. I going to ask him what is going on, but I will not pressure. I will just ask him, if he wants to go up there with me."
