Four-star offensive lineman Markee Anderson committed to the Gamecocks
July 31, 2022
A marquee recruiting victory in the Upstate for Gamecock coach Shane Beamer Sunday afternoon. OT Markee Anderson (6-5 280) of Dorman announced a commitment to the Gamecocks choosing them off a short list that also included Clemson, LSU, and North Carolina. He made official visits to all four in June.
But the Gamecocks got most of his attention during the recruiting process. Anderson made over a half-dozen visits to see the Gamecocks including games, junior days, unofficial visits, spring practice visits, camps, and his official visit. Each visit just made him feel more at home than the next.
“I would just say the family environment and the good vibes I got 24/7 down there every time I went down. Everybody down there is very genuine, very loving” Anderson said recently. “They have a very good opportunity for me to come in and start as a freshman. That’s my dream as of now.”
Anderson spent a lot of time talking with offensive line coach Greg Adkins over the months, so he has a good understanding of what the plan is for him.
“They see me as a tackle when I’m down there, or possibly inside as an interior person as far as football-wise,” Anderson said. “I’d say (the relationship) is great honestly. I think there is a lot of respect there. I respect him as a coach, and I think he does respect me as a player.”
Anderson was the second offensive linemen to commit to the Gamecocks Sunday following Jatavius Shivers, and he’s the four offensive line commitment for the class, which now numbers 15.
Anderson also is the second in-state prospect to commit publicly to the Gamecocks in as many days. Sumter DE Monteque Rhames released his commitment Saturday night.
