Four-star athlete Markquese Bell just took a campus visit to Clemson last week and it seems that the Tigers have left quite the impression on him. The Bridgeton High School product (New Jersey) was on campus Thursday and said that the visit "was better than what I thought it would be."
Bell took a tour of the campus and facilities, including the Football Operations Complex which is currently under construction. The 6'2', 200-pound athlete also went through a virtual reality practice while on campus.
While Bell doesn't have an official list of schools he's looking at, he has one at the top now. "Clemson is at the top, if I had a list," he said. "I loved the campus. It was a beautiful campus - just the surroundings, how everything is just right there. Everybody seems like they know each other - it's a small area so it's like a family atmosphere."
Bell played both sides of the ball for Bridgeton and excelled at both. He racked up more than 1,000 all-purpose yards as a wide receiver during his junior season. He had 52 receptions for 792 yards and 14 touchdowns. He also played defensive back registering 60 tackles, two sacks, two interceptions and he broke up nine passes.
