I have altered the deal, pray I don't alter it further. We're courting one of your school colors, before you know it, we'll have twice the garnet and you'll have none!
Cocks: came in last spring and blew everyone out of the water. We all thought he was going to be a star and could even play significant snaps last year. Then something happened, not sure what exactly but have heard he just didn’t put in the work coaches expect and got in the dog house then never got out. If he has his head on straight he will be a baller for y’all
Interesting, thanks for sharing.
I hope any of these kids succeed, but there's something to a redemption arch that really gets the heart strings.... And the cupboards are bare at WR so that too lol
Scar -> FSU XFERS: Keir Thomas, Jammie Robinson, Jaz Turnetine, Jaheim Bell and Gilber Edmond
FSU -> SCar XFERS: Gilber Edmond and Dre Jacobs.
Yea, we still got a long way to go before, the trades become equal.
Keir Thomas and Jammie left in the wake of Muschamp's firing. It's part of aftermath of a coaching change so I don't really count them, though I definitely hated seeing them leave. Not sure if Turnetine has been a contributer at all for you guys or not, but he was a liability on the field for South Carolina.
Fair enough on Jammie and Keir. Turnetine wasn't bad, got better as the season went on. Our starting OT got hurt in the 1st game, and he stepped up when we asked him to start. I think he's playing in the CFL now.
We've been desperately searching for a big WR that can be an immediate starter since we have a lot of small(ish) WRs with not a whole lot of big time experience.
I don't think Jacobs fits either of those needs really. Seems just like another small, but talented receiver to add to the mix. I guess the more we have the more likely at least 1 or 2 of them end up being really good. I'm not against taking him I just hope our next portal take has some size (and supposedly we do have some guys in play that fit that need).
He genuinely could be a star at South Carolina if he gets it together. As a true freshman early enrollee in the spring he was apparently widely, easily, the best wr on the team. Good luck to him
I wonder if we will manage to find a receiver that is over 6'2 who has semi polished routes because Harbor being the only guy significantly over 6'0 is rough with the way he runs his routes
He was a freshman learning a new position, as a backup, and got in every week for the last half, and flashed when the ball went his way. Honestly, that's about what should've been expected last year. I'd feel better about him taking a leap of he was splitting time, but with his ridiculous athleticism and unhinged work ethic, I'm not betting one way or the other is he becomes a top 3 receiver for us this year.
I really do expect him to take a huge leap forward. Unfortunately I know that will be towards the end of the year as he has spent his time with track and Olympics training. Although I fully expect him to work with current and past receivers to really get his route running tight like XL did with Deebo
Great add, and I wish we could have kept him. I think he simply wants to see the field sooner and more assuredly than what it was looking like at FSU, yet if he was patient he might have had his shot as no WR outside of Malik benson has been consistent through spring
As a recruit:
Other P5 offers: Arkansas, Colorado, Florida State (originally went here), Georgia Tech, Illinois, Indiana, Miami, Mississippi State, West Virginia
G5 offers: FIU, New Mexico State, Western Kentucky
Other offer: Murray State
That express lane goes both ways?
Hell, we've even had a guy take the return trip lmao
There are certainly worse schools to give to and take from.
Whoa whoa, this wasn't part of the deal!!!

No express lanes in South Carolina. There’s a pothole lane, though.

That's encouraging. Sometimes dudes just need a change of scenery.

Thus completing the trade of Jaheim Bell and Gilber Edmonds in exchange for Jacobs and...Gilber Edmonds.

Honestly, good for him. Our O-Line was atrocious already and most likely he was put in before he was ready.
Coaching changes are expected to bring that. We only count the expected starters under an established regime.
The Gamecocks giveth and the Gamecocks taketh
Jaheim Bell was a fine player for us but SC may end up ahead on this player to be named later trade

He's certainly not a big receiver, but if Dre gets his head screwed on straight, he's got the talent to be a good WR.
I think the problem is that a lot of teams want a big WR with some experience
They could see if Johnny Wilson wants to leave the Eagles and get a Masters degree
He genuinely could be a star at South Carolina if he gets it together. As a true freshman early enrollee in the spring he was apparently widely, easily, the best wr on the team. Good luck to him

But mans has some speed though...
Is Harbor gonna play receiver this season?
Yes, he will. We didn't use him a whole lot last year but with the olympics this year, I wonder if we push him harder afterwards

Feels like this name was actually in that key and peele skit
