Looks like JSU landed a big D-line transfer from the enemy to our south. He was a consensus 3-star coming out of high school in 2019. The trojans had him on the OL, but his Twitter makes it clear he plans to play DT at JSU. He redshirted in 2019, so he should have a full four years with the Gamecocks.

DISCLAIMER: I'm hoping on this board I won't need to say this, but I'm going to state it once for the record, just in case. I'm not saying this guy is going to be the greatest player to don a Gamecock uniform. I'm merely stating the fact we picked up a body from the transfer portal, and, based on his high school stats and accolades, he shows some promise to be a contributor for us. If you interpret this as "naively believing high school kids and unproven transfers are great football players" then do yourself and me a favor and never, ever speak to me. Thank you and God bless.
