Three new offers from the Gamecocks

May 20, 2016

- The Gamecocks extended an offer on Wednesday to 2018 cornerback Nate Thompson of Sanford, North Carolina.

Thompson, whose other offers to this point come from Virginia Tech, NC State and Charlotte, stands at 6'3, great size for a corner, but also runs a 4.5 second 40-yard dash as a rising junior. He hasn't blown up yet recruiting wise, but there is athletic potential with Thompson so it is a smart, early offer by the Gamecocks staff to get in the game with him now and track how he develops in the next two years.

- 2017 3-star defensive end Aaron Moffitt of Baton Rouge, Louisiana received an offer from South Carolina on Wednesday, his 12th thus far.


Moffitt obviously hails from the heart of LSU country, which typically means he's almost certainly Tiger-bound. Moffitt does have an offer on the table from the hometown Tigers, so that's where he is most likely to end up at this point in time. However, the state of Louisiana produces tons of under the radar, high-quality players, so it is always smart to offer a few down there who teams like LSU might pass on, but show potential and could develop into solid players at the next level. Moffitt fits that bill and is certainly one to keep an eye on going forward.

- On Thursday, South Carolina offered 2017 3-star cornerback Ameer Speed of Jacksonville, Florida.

Speed now has 35 offers on the table, so the Gamecocks are not the only ones on his trail. Having Travaris Robinson on staff always helps, though, with both players from Florida and defensive backs. At 6'3, 195 pounds, Speed has great size and length for his position, much like Nate Thompson, and is someone to watch out for should South Carolina decides to pursue him with vigor.
