Football Recruiting - Southeast Region: Dabo Swinney
ESPN Watch List wide receiver Jake McCrary (Miami/Coral Reef) has reached a decision.
The former Florida State pledge, who decommitted from the Seminoles in early fall of 2012, is going to stay in the ACC after all.
On Monday night, he took himself back off the market, this time joining Clemson's 2014 class.
"Clemson just felt like home," McCrary said. "I love the coaches. They are great people, and I feel like I can come in and make a huge impact."
McCrary's fondness for Clemson grew stronger after he broke off his pledge with Florida State. He was certainly not bashful in saying the Tigers were his leader.
And now he's made his decision official and will head to the orange Death Valley and coach Dabo Swinney.
McCrary joins three other ESPN Watch List members in Clemson's 2014 class, including Deshaun Watson (Gainesville, Ga./Gainesville), Cannon Smith (Columbia, S.C./Hammond) and Dalvin Cook (Miami/Central).
He is the sixth junior to commit to Clemson.

Cornerback Mackensie Alexander of Immokalee (Fla.) High School, the No. 2 corner and No. 4 overall prospect in the ESPN 150, selected Clemson on Wednesday in a ceremony at his high school. Alexander, the No. 2-ranked player in Florida, visited Auburn and Mississippi State late but settled on a school to which he made an official visit in November.
He said he connected with Clemson coach Dabo Swinney.
“He’s a church guy like me,” Alexander said in an interview on ESPNU. “I trust in them guys. I’m going to be in a great position.”
He acknowledged the high level of competition in the Southeastern Conference but predicted success for Clemson during his time there.
“We’re going to win the national title,” Alexander said.
