I have a full NSD wrap-up coming out on the front page in about an hour, but I wanted to pass this tidbit along here for those of you that check out the Insider's Forum for updates throughout the day:

The one notable NLI absence today is DL Zavion Hardy. We did tell you folks earlier in the process that it might be a little touch-and-go with his academic situation, and our latest sources are telling Gamecock Scoop that Hardy could be a potential sign and place if he can't get cleared. We will keep you updated as those plans become more apparent.

Hearing from Shane Beamer in the football building today to go over the 2023 signing class.

Need a break from signing day coverage? I've got you covered with the No. 1 Gamecocks in their last game before the SEC schedule starts.

We will continue to update this thread and let you know if there are any surprises.

Defensive tackle Elijah Davis commits to South Carolina.

Anybody hearing anything about this possibility. I am hearing rumblings and wondering if there is some smoke to the fire?

But hey he has the positive attitude and a culture changer right??????

Looks like Sparky to me.

Will we be an embarrassment in football forever??

Shane Beamer back at it with another welcome home tweet, this one coming about an hour before signing day officially kicks off

As we alluded to earlier, this is about to be a giant 24 hours.

Elijah Davis is a Gamecock.

I'd rather have Kenny Loggins, than Dowell Loggains. I guess this proves that no one of note believes in South Carolina or Beamer. If they did, Beamer would have to lie about having a list of great candidates and settling on the Arkansas's tight end coach. If we don't score 40+ next year in every game no matter who is the qb, I would hope we'd boo.

I know there were reports that Tosin was going to wait until tomorrow to announce his decision, but we can confirm that he plans to still announce his college decision tonight at 7 pm.

I haven't flipped my futurecast if that means anything to you.

Let's hear your guess on who is hiding behind all these pre-writes?

Seems we have a Star Trek beam me up portal in Columbia. Starting Edge DE Edmond just beamed himself into the portal. Led USC in tackles for loss, 2nd on team in QB hurries.

Our Winter Scrimmage vs Notre Dame should be interesting

What if I told you there's still more to come today?

I suggest we have an alternative motto. We obviously have “Forever to Thee”, but more accurately for some should be “Until Just Before the Bowl Game to Thee” 😆

Hearing from 10 players today for pre-bowl interviews:

Nate Adkins
Marcellas Dial
Luke Doty
Nick Emmanwori
Jovaughn Gwyn
Tonka Hemingway
Dakereon Joyner
Juju McDowell
Jaylen Nichols
Antwane Wells Jr.
