Signee analysis: Jarvis Green - 3-star RB - Irmo, SC

Committed since: 12/13/22.

Listed size: 5-9 192.

Notable: In a Dutch Fork championship run this season, Green rushed for 2,272 yards and 33 touchdowns, adding over 500 receiving yards and six scores there as well. He totaled over 4,600 rushing yards over four seasons. Green added offers in December from Clemson and Virginia Tech after being committed to James Madison previously. He earned MaxPreps SC Player of the Year and was a Mr. Football finalist.

CJ Spiller on Green: "This is a guy who loves Clemson. He grew up a huge Clemson fan. The Good Lord worked it out for him and it worked out for us...The guy is just very productive when you watch the tape. He's very versatile. Running through the people, showing the power -- showing the stiff-arm, he's not a very big guy but he keeps his feet moving through contact."

Quotable: “A great running back with the vision, the patience to just come in from day one and just work and just to earn a spot on the team. Just because I've been in a great system. And people compare me to Travis Etienne. I get that a lot. The way we run and the patience we have and how we find the hole and make a play when the team needs it.” - Green on what he brings to the Tigers.

Depth chart fit: Green enters a Clemson running back room led by a pair of standout rising juniors in Will Shipley and Phil Mafah. With Kobe Pace transferring out, the depth is on the lower end so he’s not that far from a key role. The Tigers are expected to add another running back addition in this class as well.
