Sunday night recruiting round-up
March 19, 2023
Gamecocks had an active recruiting weekend as prospects primarily from the 2024 and 2025 classes came through to watch practices on Friday and Saturday. And somebody in the 2024 class committed as Shane Beamer sent out a commitment alert Saturday night. One possibility would be Greenville OG Blake Franks who was expected in for a visit Saturday. Franks hasn’t spoken to the media in weeks and has been deciding between the Gamecocks and Clemson. He has visited both multiple times and has put off making a decision multiple times.
Another possibility would be Dillon OT Josiah Thompson. Just a few hours after another unofficial visit to South Carolina Tuesday, Thompson (6-7 290) made public that he knows where he wants to play his college football. via a tweet, Thompson wrote, “I know my decision now!!”
Here’s a list of confirmed visitors to South Carlina based on their social media posts:
2025 OT Demetrius Campbell (6-6 300) of Orlando, 2025 OT Thomas Zimblatti (6-3 315) of Richmond Hill, GA, 2025 Edward Coleman (5-11 185) of Savannah visited the Gamecocks earlier in the week.
