3 star 6-9 260lbs Desmond Ringer of McDonough, GA will make an official visit to USC this weekend, and the Gamecocks are one of his top two teams along with Mercer. He will visit the Macon school weekend after next. Vanderbilt is a third school on his list but the Commodores are not a major factor now. "He still likes Vandy but it looks like they've been able to get one of their bigs, and we're not sure they're going to take another," said Ringer's father Boris. Ringer and his parents will use this weekend in Columbia to learn all they can about the program. "We know they have a great head coach," Boris Ringer said. "The whole purpose of the visit is to check them out and see what's going on, see if he's blends with their team." Ringer is planning to sign in November. He can play the four or five spots. He was his team's leading rebounder last season.
