Hearing from Shane Beamer to break down the Class of 2024 signees and the portal additions confirmed today. Lot to discuss with the head coach at the podium for the first time since post-game in the Clemson aftermath.

Updating all of South Carolina football's transfer portal entries this off-season starting with EDGE Donovan Westmoreland, who several outlets are reporting is planning to enter the portal when it officially opens on Dec. 4.

Westmoreland appeared in seven games in 2022 but only two in 2023 and did not enter any stats. He had three years of eligibility remaining after redshirting this season.

Well 2024 starts today. The schedule? Somehow maybe even tougher. Our talent?? Rattler and XL likely both gone. Portal gonna be brutal. We may be less talented across the roster in general in 2024.

4-8? 5-7?

a lot to like of his high floor, imo

Was a heavy lean to SC, now all a sudden crystal balls showing to Clemson tomorrow for his commitment. #1 player in the state for 2025....SMH, when it rains it pours.

Hello from Colonial Life Arena on a big night of hoops around South Carolina's sphere. Gamecocks are on the road at Bowling Green on the WBB side -- which we'll also have a thread for -- and MBB will host Winthrop tonight.

Eagles come in at 8-4 and are a sneaky test for the Gamecocks here. Going to need a better performance than Saturday vs. Charleston Southern in this one.

Pop back and forth between the MBB thread and the WBB thread as the Gamecocks take on the Bowling Green Falcons.

He listed South Carolina in his current list of top schools, alongside Tennessee, Cincinnati, and South Florida.

Other offers include Appalachian State, Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, Georgia State, Jacksonville State, Liberty, and Old Dominion.

The defender is being recruited to play a hybrid role as an edge rusher and linebacker by outside linebackers and defensive ends coach Sterling Lucas, whom Adams has had a relationship with since his sophomore season, making the short trip to the Columbia campus from Sumter on several occasions throughout his high school career for camps and unofficial visits.

NOT on the SEC Network, as showing on the so-called schedules.

That gives them the top 2 players in the state for 2025. Did Beamer give them permission to start taking the top instate talent now?

Checking in from CLA.....where I have been since before noon anyway but here we are.

Second half of the double dip coming up in half an hour with MBB hosting Charleston Southern at the top of the hour. Starters and updates coming shortly.

I and others railed against the portal and NIL, in particular the immediate eligibility portal but combined with NIL making 24/7/365 free agency, which no sports league could survive. And I was told to shut up, that who am I to judge whats best for someone and “what’s best for me” should ALWAYS be the ONLY thing that’s considered.

So now, our top player for 2024 has entered the portal. Everyone should be happy. Critique isnt allowed. Loyalty to the program who took an FCS player and made him a legit pro prospect? Nope.

Long day of hoops coming at CLA. Let's get it on.

No Raven Johnson today, out due to rest from some soreness per the team.
