I know a lot of people in the upstate was not happy with them pulling resources away from the general public that is in need. But we’ve seen this before.

Do we consider these guys Gamecocks? Do you cheer for them like you do Gilmore/Clowney/Legette/Rattler and Dowdle?

I don’t! I feel like they were just here and never cared about Carolina.

Good afternoon, hope everyone is doing well. Spent the afternoon out at Founders Park for day one of fall baseball today. Gamecocks are scrimmaging 2-3 innings each of the first four days this week and I'll try to make it out to all four.

Not a lot to unpack because they're basically just having every pitcher throw one inning and they're all on pitch counts, but I did have a few notes from today for the subscribers. Will update as the week goes on, but as for today:

- Talmadge LeCroy played catcher for two innings. Looked fine from what I could see, nothing to really report which is what you want from someone breaking in a new position. Paul Mainieri mentioned this morning that he has been working at catcher over the summer and he "has a chance to be our number one catcher" going forward.

- Will Tippett had one at-bat and crushed an 0-2 pitch into the left field bullpen off Tyler Dean. Swing looks like where it ended last year when he hit two homers in the regional.

- Clemson tranfer Nolan Nawrocki made a nice diving stop at third base on a sharp ground ball from Ethan Petry, probably robbing him of a double.

- Liked what I saw from freshman pitcher Ryder Garino. Wasn't throwing hard, topping at about 90 MPH, but a lot of strikes. Struck out transfers Max Kaufer and Jase Woita in his inning.

- Productive day from the bats you'd expect to be near the top of the lineup. Kennedy Jones had a sharp opposite field single, plus Blake Jackson and Dalton Mashore both drew walks.

Three-star Columbia (SC) LSU TE commit Mike Tyler will visit South Carolina this weekend, he tells Rivals.
