One of the nation's top-rated 2023 safeties has Clemson in the mix after a recent offer.

Westgate (La.) 4-star Derek Williams announced his top schools list late Saturday.

He has Clemson in a top-eight group along with Miami, LSU, Texas, Alabama, Michigan, Texas A&M and Oklahoma.

Williams, who picked up a Clemson offer in late May, is a unanimous top-100-rated prospect and ranked as high as the nation's No. 2 safety (Rivals).

He earned area defensive MVP honors with 127 tackles, 10 for loss, with two sacks and three forced fumbles (and one returned for a touchdown).
