we lead the nation in returning offensive line snaps. one can point out we brought in 4 experienced guys last season and it didnt work out. why it will be different this year is more experience across the board at every position. that and we know theres more high end talent with peak and poku...

I didnt want to clog up the chat with a rambling somewhat long message. I only watched the highlights but some general thoughts on where we're at. I thought after arkansas the only way forward was playing two bigs instead Paris has doubled down in an ugly yet competitive performance vs auburn...

michael smith committed to ole miss. i think the speculation out there is that we were unwilling to pay his buyout and ole miss was so off he goes. if thats the case beamer's position may have been you quit on us last year, we'll let you come back but paying your buyout is a bridge too far.

wes mitchell and chris clark from gamecockcentral went live and said cant speak on the details of what exactly is happening with michael smith but that from their perspective theres too many hoops to jump through so they dont think its likely he'll be back playing with the gamecocks this year.

i havent read the story but i saw there was an update on the big spur this morning that seemingly was leaning toward him being able to return. gamecockcentral is reporting that desmond umeozulu signed an nil contract prior to entering the portal and we're going to enforce the buyout but let him...

the tight end i mentioned earlier gavin harris committed to ga tech. i cant remember if hes visiting but i think we're pushing for texas rb christian clark. he didnt get many carries during the season but ran for over 100 yards in their bowl game. he wouldnt break the bank and he'd be a guy...

edge desmond umeozulu entered the portal. tennessee edge caleb herring commits to sc. caleb initially signed as a very highly rated yet very slim around 200 lb edge that got up to a listed 245 last year and had 4.5 sacks and 6 tfl in a reserve role after not having much impact his first two...

ot josiah thompson withdraws from portal. so we're back at 15 olinemen. db jalewis solomon reportedly was going to enter the portal, but then it was confirmed hes decided to stay. we're in the final 3 for pittsburgh ot jackson brown.

ol ryan brubaker entered the portal. now makes it only 5 returning ol from last year's team. new mexico st te gavin harris is visiting. he would give us that receiving tight end who can stretch the field with yac ability like josh simon.

i think we would take any rb if they think hes that good or brings something different to the table otherwise 5 should be fine. i'd like 1-2 tight ends hopefully one that is more of a downfield receiving target than hunt and/or a specialist blocking tight end. we ran some 6 ol sets last year...

3 more commits, collins brothers and seth smith veteran fcs tackle from northern arizona. de drew collins will be a rs soph, 3 sacks in a reserve role last year at arkansas st. dl kelby collins was very highly rated out of a high school, no.53 player in the nation according to 247sports...

5 ol, 2 wr, 1 rb, 2 dt, 1 cb, 1 k so now i'm thinking edge, safety, te, rb

247 doesnt have db quay scott rated for some reason, on3 ranks him no.8 cb, 91.76 rating and a 4 star. 247 ranks jacarrius peak as the no.3 ot and a 94 rating 4 star, on3 ranks him no.1 ot and a 98 rating and a 5 star. upton bellenfant on3 ranks no.4 kicker in the portal. on3 has our portal...

i wonder if that 21 number is with the 105 scholarships. there are certain spots where we need bodies but i think theyre hopeful the wr and dt could turn into difference makers. since the portal's inception we have brought in less players every year than who portaled out. 21 currently...

the kicker transferred from buffalo to texas tech last year and wasnt their primary kicker, but he did go 6-6 on his fg attempts all under 40 yards. at buffalo he went 18-21 and 1-2 from 50+ with a long of 52. he played under our former special teams coordinator pete lembo in 2024. he didnt...

could be but theres also the reality that we were 4-8, but we're probably also not as desperate for bodies as some programs who had more outgoings or more seniors. we'll see if it picks up or if later we find out they know what theyre doing with the evaluations. last year's portal class sucked...

i thought he was playing good football but i didnt realize he was regarded as highly as he was until these november mocks onward and at that point it became he clear he was gone.

i dont think blackwell is a bad coach but he hasnt recruited well and the rb rotation was hard to understand. howell only getting 14 carries on the year is a fireable offense from the top down. i'd expect elliott to be named full time oline coach. beamer has to nail the oc hire. i didnt...

theres always the chance that furrey lights it up and shane names him oc but thats probably not realistic, not what the fanbase wants, and shane knows he either nails this hire or hes done. furrey was the best choice to call plays and if hes a success it only makes beamer look worse for not...

you could see he was a special back from his first game action here. there were times early in his nfl career you couldnt see this breakout coming. 7 carries his first 3 years. became the primary backup in 2023 and was solid but didnt necessarily scream that he should be starting. starts...
