Report: South Carolina losing a key defender to the NCAA transfer portal
A key South Carolina defender is reportedly entering the transfer portal, which is a huge blow to the Gamecocks.
Per a report from The State, there are multiple reports that CB Jamyest Williams, one of the top players in the secondary, is leaving the program.
Williams has appeared in all 4 games for the Gamecocks this year, making 3 starts. By entering the portal now, the junior defender will still have one year of eligibility remaining at his new school.
Williams has 16 tackles this year. In the previous two years of play, he recorded 3 interceptions for the Gamecock defense.
Williams was a 4-star recruit coming out of high school.
This guy gets it.
Kirby desperately wanted this guy. I do remember he’s abnormally undersized.
What’s going on with the SC defense this year is strange. Muschamp is a great DC and TRob is a great secondary coach. For whatever reason, the translation to HC and DC for them isn’t working.
weagle we can say the same thing regarding Pruitt. How can one of the supposed premier DC’s field such a shoddy defense. I cant say for Muschamp but for Pruitt could it be that coordinating a team that is not chocked full of 5 stars really reflect your true prowess, or lack thereof.
In spite of the early season struggles with both programs I expect a great game Saturday night
I wish Jam the best in the future, but if you don’t like to tackle you shouldn’t play football. He put on a show against Mizzou avoiding tackles.
The new anomaly of college football, game 4 transfers. We have the transfer portal, players sitting out bowl games, push to pay for their likeness, transfers without sitting a year.
The good ole days of college football are behind us (fans), and crashing much like NASCAR minus a restrictor plate to slow the crash down.
So your argument against recent changes in cfb is that fan perception is more important than the player experience? I thought that kind of expectation usually occurs when the entertainers are professionals, not student amateurs.
How can we call someone selfish for wanting to tap into the value that they already generate and not be selfish ourselves for opposing changes merely because we like how the status quo feels?
If anyone’s looking to scoop a tackling dummy this is your man
