Following high school, Mukuba opted to join Clemson after being heavily recruited.In 2021 as a freshman Mukuba saw action in 13 games and played a total of 580 snaps at safety for the Tigers. He recorded 34 tackles, 11 assists, while adding 7 stops. In coverage Mukuba notched up 6 pass breakups, no interceptions, and QB rating when targetted of 94.3.

Scouting Report: Strengths
- Excellent sitting back as a single-high safety, taking in routes and reading the quarterback’s eyes
- Tracks the ball well downfield and shows good ball skills, including the ability to go up and high-point it in contested-catch situations.
- Picks up crossing routes well from the hash and uses cornerback speed to chase and cut in front of passes when possible.
- Physical run supporter in the Antoine Winfield mold with short-area explosiveness to leave his mark on ballcarriers.
- Has the fluidity, speed and quick feet to come down and defend slot receivers in man coverage. Mukuba also does a nice job breaking down in space as a tackler after the catch.
- Lean, athletic build with plenty of room for additional muscle mass. Legitimate NFL-caliber athlete.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- NFL quarterbacks may take advantage of his aggressiveness in man and zone to eye up short routes and go over the top
- Isn’t great in route recognition when he’s facing the action, is hesitant and susceptible to double moves, and too often gets unnecessarily handsy when playing trail position
- Mukuba gets beat over the top too often, and Mukuba tends to panic and get too handsy when running downfield.
