The Gamecocks will host top-50 center Jordan Butler beginning Friday night (8/19) and continuing through the weekend.

Coach Paris and staff are competing solidly with teams like Auburn, Florida State, Missouri and Georgia Tech who are all showing interest. Butler is a four-star prospect and typically ranked inside of the top 50 players in the country.

Auburn is the current favorite to land his services, but South Carolina could change that thought after this weekend in what is a very important official visit for the Gamecocks. Both of Butler’s parents went to South Carolina and his mother played basketball for the Gamecocks. Butler’s brother, John Jr., played at Florida State.
 
Yes, but it's not as it appears from the article title. He's not visiting b/c Florida State was doing some facilities renovations and the team was not going to be having court drills, which is what Jordan wants to experience. Jordan commented on this elsewhere. He's still trying to negotiate another visit, and it's not likely he will commit to the 'Cocks before he does so. That being said, I think Coach Paris is currently the lead horse in the race for Jordan's services as a collegiate athlete.
