Look at Defensive End/Edge
March 13, 2022
Starters: Jordan Strachan, Jordan Burch Backups: Gilber Edmond, Terrell Dawkins
South Carolina loses both Kingsley “JJ” Enagbare and Aaron Sterling from last year’s squad, but it’s got plenty of pieces to build around in 2022. Jordan Strachan tied for the FBS lead in sacks during the 2020 season at Georgia State. He fell behind Enagbare and Sterling in the rotation last fall, but he’s a logical replacement for the linebacker/defensive end hybrid slot left open by Enagbare. Jordan Burch is perhaps the biggest question mark in this equation. The former five-star recruit has had flashes during his time in Columbia but hasn’t quite developed into the dominant force his recruiting rankings prognosticated. Burch has perhaps the highest upside of anyone on the roster this year. South Carolina would benefit immensely if he can take the next step in his progression.
