Monday evening recruiting notes
June 27, 2022
An NCAA mandated dead period is now in place until the final week of July, so the latest run of official and unofficial visits are done. For many prospects, it also means they are done with their recruiting and are ready to announce, if they haven’t done so already. There will be a flurry of USC and Clemson prospects announcing their college choice over the next two weeks.
DE TJ Searcy (6-5 250) of Thomaston, GA was among the official visitors at USC over the weekend. That was the last of his four official visits in June. The first three were Clemson, Florida and Tennessee. Monday afternoon Searcy announced a top four of USC, Clemson, Florida and Tennessee. He has not yet provided a timeline for a commitment announcement.
DE Chandavian Bradley of Platte City, MO also was in for an official visit to USC over the weekend. Monday, he named a final three of USC, Texas A&M and Tennessee. He took official visits in June to USC and Texas A&M, and he took an unofficial visit to Tennessee in May.
Here’s a list of the scheduled announcements:
6/30/2022 TREYAUN WEBB RB is coming off an official visit to USC, and also took OVs to Florida and Penn State.
7/1/2022 BRAYLON JOHNSON SAF is coming off an official to Virginia Tech, where his dad played, and he took an OV to USC as well.
7/1/2022 JAYBRON HARVEY DE took OVs to USC, Oklahoma, North Carolina and Louisville.

He is coming off an official visit to Boston College. He took an official visit to USC June 10th. The Gamecocks primary focus at running back has been on Treyaun Webb who made his official visit over the weekend.
USC target WR London Humphreys of Nashville took an official visit to Vanderbilt over the weekend. He had considered coming to the Gamecocks cookout Saturday. He’s now looking at a visit to Columbia in the last week of July.
