Recent North Carolina commitment Donavan Tate, a 6-foot-2, 205-pound athlete from Cartersville (Ga.) High, has jumped into the just-revised Rivals.com Top 100 prospects list, at No. 81. Tate, who runs the 40- yard dash in 4.5 seconds, was also offered by Southern Cal, Alabama and Georgia, among others.

The Tar Heels also have No.17 on the list, Donte Moss of Jacksonville (N.C.) Northeast High, a powerful DE, and WR Jheranie Boyd of Gastonia Ashbrook (No.34).

Clemson has an outstanding catch at No.36, Malliciah Goodman, a 6-4, 255-pound DE out of West Florence (S.C) High. And South Carolina claims the No.89 prospect, DB/QB DeVonte Holloman of South Pointe High in Rock Hill. The Gamecocks also landed No.91, athlete Damario Jeffery of Columbia (S.C.) High.

Virginia Tech, assembling another strong class, has commitments from TE Logan Thomas (No.29) of Lynchburg (Va.) Brookville High, and RB David Wilson (No.46) of Danville (Va.) George Washington High.
