Pharoh Cooper made a name for himself as one of the SEC’s top wide receivers during his time at South Carolina.
Now, the former Gamecock is busy preparing for the next phase of his football career.
The NFL Combine begins on Wednesday, and Cooper has been hard at work on improving his craft during training sessions at the EXOS facility in Phoenix, Ariz. for more than six weeks.
The State caught up with Cooper for a feature story in advance of his trip to Indianapolis to be judged by all 32 NFL teams.
“The biggest thing they have said is really just carry yourself like a pro already, just as far as how you respond to answers, how you carry yourself,” Cooper said. “The on-field stuff will take care of itself.”
