Shilo Sanders
USC Tuesday night gained a commitment from a cornerback prospect with quite a football legacy. 3 star CB Shilo Sanders 6'1" 184lbs of Cedar Hill, TX, the son of Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback Deion Sanders, announced his plans to sign with the Gamecocks next month with a post on his Instagram.
Sanders took an unofficial visit to USC this past Saturday. He made his official visit on October. USC defensive coordinator Travaris Robinson, who is the secondary coach, built a strong relationship with Sanders during the recruiting process and he’s looking forward to playing under him.
“The good thing about Coach T-Rob’s is that he will play his corners’ strengths,” Sanders said. “Like me, being a great press man corner, he will have me in press a lot. He’s a coach who likes playing to your strength.”
Sanders, who played in the Under Armour All-American Game, had 19 tackles and 5 interceptions this past season. Doubling as a receiver, he had 13 catches for 199 yards and 3 touchdowns according to stats compiled by MaxPreps.
Sanders also took an official visit to Colorado State. Tennessee also showed strong interest. Some of his other reported offers were Michigan State, Florida State, Syracuse, Texas A&M, Nebraska, Arkansas, UCF, Georgia and Oregon.
He’s the third cornerback for USC in the class and gives the Gamecocks 23 members that count towards the 2019 signing class.
The Gamecocks will be going back to the Sanders family in the future. Shilo’s younger brother Shedeur is regarded as one of the top quarterbacks in the country for the 2021 class.
Here’s Sanders’ announcement video:
