The Official 2014 'Who is Left?' Thread

Someone needs to pull the trigger soon. It's dead out there.

It's wait-and-see until the Spring Game.

I wouldn't think it would be that long. USC still has a couple of junior days coming up.

what?

And done-zo. Update completed (save for the handful of errors that are found later, which I encourage y'all not to be shy and let me know). I've included in this post a review of some of the updates that are noted. I picked the ones that showed the most dramatic change.

(Some) of What’s New:

- Added Poona Ford and Darin Smalls
- Kevin Crosby dropped Alabama from a “warm” to a “cool,” with Florida seeming to take Bama’s place.
- Terry Googer adds UNC to the mix of “warm” interest.
- Derrell Scott has had an interesting shakeup. USC is no longer a red-ink favorite, but still has an interest rating higher than all the others at the top. Also, he went from having FSU and OSU tied 2nd, but now the tied-for-2nd also includes Clemson, ND, and Tenn, but drops FSU.
- Dexter Wideman now lists USC even higher as a red-ink “Favorite”
- B-AW adds Michigan to his 2nds list, and unfortunately no longer lists USC as a red-ink favorite, but still has USC alone at the top.
- Bentley Spain promotes USC to alone at the top
- Drew Barker - lots changed. Previously had just USC, UK and OSU tied at the top. OSU drops from that, and in comes Louisville, UNC, Tenn and Vandy in the six-way-tie.
- Naquez Pringle makes a big jump in our favor. Previously was USC and Clemson tied at the top. FSU, OSU and Arky tied at 2nd. NOW: USC is a red-ink “Favorite” with Clemson a distant 2nd. Wewt!
- Peyton Newell - Bit of a change-up. Went from USC, Kansas, KSU, NC State, and Nebraska tied at the top, but now it’s only Nebraska and USC tied at the top and the previous remaining front-runners are tied 2nd.
- Christian Miller committed to Florida. Old news.
- Blake Bone’s rating dropped from #71 WR to #91.


A Nugget of Perspective: We have two bookends on D-line, ranked 8 and 12 in their position, listing USC as red-ink favorites. Boom-yow!

Paul Strelow, until recently with the UNC 247 site, implied Bentley Spain might be announcing soon for the Gamecocks. He posted the early April visit to UNC for Spain, but I think Strelow thought it might not happen.

Thank you guys for the info. Us on the outside really appreciate it.

Time for the best class in USC history to begin!!

Lots of names flying around, but the numbers can't work out this year. Clowney will leave early, we have 4 Seniors, and 3 available scholarships. So, if 2-4 kids transfer or otherwise leave, and 1-3 don't qualify, we will have between 11-15 scholarships available. I could see another 1 or 2 leaving, but placing Vickers offsets this...am I on drugs or is this accurate?

QB - 1
RB - 1
FB - 1 Blue
WR - 2
TE - 1
OL - 2-3
DL - 3
LB - 1-3
DB - 2-4

With all the talented players in South Carolina(although some feel the numbers are still down), you will see a lot of interest from out of state schools. There will be some battles as the kids receive more offers. I think it will be a snooze, you lose year for some players, and others will be just plain disappointed.

The real question is which of our coaches does SOS run up against Lawing every time he pushes in our neighborhood.
