South Carolina recruiting update: Gamecocks’ class holds steady
Jan. 06, 2017

In seven days, the Gamecocks will host a round of official visitors, a group that’s rumored to include 4-star defensive Robert Beal, who’s committed to Georgia. Defensive end Aaron Sterling, offensive tackle Jordan Rhodes and defensive end/outside linebacker Brad Johnson also will be among the guests on campus next weekend.
