Jaheim Bell was expected to be an important part of South Carolina’s offensive scheme against Missouri. In the 23-10 loss to the Tigers, however, the Gamecock tight end was hardly involved.

Bell’s mother was vocal on social media Saturday night, retweeting posts about Bell not recording any touches in the division clash. Shane Beamer addressed Bell’s lack of involvement during his Sunday media teleconference.

The second-year South Carolina head coach told reporters that Bell was on the sidelines due to the personnel groupings.

Considering Bell’s talent and play-making capability, the South Carolina staff may look to work the tight end into more of those personnel groupings so he’s an option for QB Spencer Rattler.
