Who was the first Gamecock QB that you got see play?
- Thread starter andersoncountycock
- Start date
The first game I went to I was too young to remember who the quarterback was. The first quarterback that I remember while going to a game was Ron Bass in 1977 clemson game. I think South Carolina was trailing at halftime 3-17 or 3-24. I remember South Carolina rallied in the second half and led 27-24 only to lose on a late drive by clemson with the final score 27-31. That was the last time Ron Bass played in Williams Brice Stadium.
First heard Gordon Beckham... First saw on TV Allen Mitchell and Mike Hold.... First saw in person Todd Ellis.
Actually, my father never drove to the stadium. We parked, I think, in a parking lot near the corner of Blanding street and Sumpter street and traveled in a SCE&G bus ( I could be wrong about name of bus) that went to the north end of Williams Brice stadium for dropping people off going to the game. The Buses would be located at the same place for pickup after the game. Not sure if fans still park in town and ride the bus to the games anymore.
Ever who the QB was in 1971. I have been a Gamecock fans since circa 1960 but I didn't get to see my first Carolina game until 1971. I just remember Dickie Harris being the big star on the 1971 team.
I met Johnny Grambling in Nashville one year. It was the Friday night before the game with Vandy. I talked with him probably 15-30 minutes and he was a very interesting person and still all Gamecock. That's what I liked about him.
Freddie, broke into his apt one night!!.......guess it’s considered a break in
....was with his brother in law couldn’t find the stashed key & he knew another passive way in.......can’t recall reasons..., but there was a proverbial load of gamecock memorabilia in study.

Mitchell, oh and as joe said, “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”.
Todd Ellis is the first I remember seeing... I am sure I saw one or two prior, but I was so young I don’t count them.
