Raekwon McMillan and Jalyn Holmes never intended for the conversation to go the way it did.

Yet there they were, a pair of highly-coveted uncommitted high school football prospects, sitting by themselves inside the Clemson practice facility in the summer of 2013 talking about anything and everything that comes with major college football recruiting.

Finally, after a bit of back-and-forth discussion, it hit both of them.

“We were talking, man, and we were talking about the things that weighed out and what was better and what was not,” McMillan recalled Wednesday. “We came to the conclusion like, ‘We’re up here talking about Ohio State when we were visiting Clemson.’”

And so began a friendship that figures to go on for a lifetime.

McMillan, a five-star linebacker prospect from Hinesville, Georgia, was one of the most sought after recruits in the 2014 class. He had offers from nearly every school in the country, but three stood out: Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State.

Holmes was a four-star defensive end prospect from Norfolk, Virginia, who wasn’t exactly as highly-touted as McMillan but had a rather impressive offer list nonetheless. Ohio State, Clemson and Florida State were all after him.
