Movement within the Gamecocks class
 
April 30, 2018

There’s been some movement inside the 2019 South Carolina recruiting class. Four-star quarterback Ryan Hilinski is now the top-rated member of the haul.

That’s in large part to the rankings released by ESPN, which has Hilinski as the top-rated pocket passer in the Class of 2019.

Wide receiver Jamario Holley, the only other 4-star prospect in the class, is now the No. 2-ranked commitment for the Gamecocks.
