Early years

Clemmings attended Paterson Catholic High School in Paterson, New Jersey, where he led the Cougars to back-to-back Non-Public Group 1 state championships. Despite playing only two seasons of football at Paterson Catholic, he earned status as the top overall prospect in the state of New Jersey. As a senior, he helped lead his team to a perfect 11-0 en route to the title. For the season, he collected 73 tackles, seven sacks and seven forced fumbles. Following his senior season, he was named North Jersey Defensive Player of the Year, All-New Jersey, All-New Jersey Non-Public, All-Passaic County and All-BPSL (Bergen-Passaic Scholastic League). Clemmings also established himself as a Division I prospect in basketball and received scholarship offers from Big East schools Providence and Seton Hall after he spearheaded a defense that notched five shutouts and yielded just 41 points on the year (3.7 points per game). In track & field, Clemmings notched a top-throw of 12.90 meters (42-ft, 3-in) as a senior in 2009.[1]

Regarded as a four-star recruit by Rivals.com, he was ranked as the state's No. 2 prospect and the country's No. 16 strongside defensive end.[2]Scout.com rated him the No. 1 overall player in New Jersey and the nation's No. 6 defensive end prospect, as well as the country's No. 38 player overall.[3] He was selected to PrepStar "Dream Team" and was rated one of the country's top 50 overall prospects by PrepStar. In June 2009, Clemmings committed to the University of Pittsburgh to play college football.[4]

College career

Clemmings played defensive end his first three years at Pittsburgh. As a true freshman he appeared in eight games, making three tackles. After being redshirted in 2011, Clemmings played in eight games in 2012 with six starts, finishing with 20 tackles.[5] Prior to the 2012 BBVA Compass Bowl, he was switched from defensive end to offensive tackle.[6] In 2013, he became a full-time offensive tackle and started all 13 games at right tackle.[7][8] Clemmings returned as a starter in 2014.[9]
