It wasn’t pretty to start, but South Carolina pulled away from Charlotte late to win its second game of the season, 56-20.
Head coach Shane Beamer addressed the media following South Carolina’s win. He touched on MarShawn Lloyd, updated the status of an injured Gamecock and hinted at a bit of recruiting.
The recruiting callout came when Beamer was describing Lloyd’s performance. The sophomore running back rushed for 169 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Shane Beamer, joking about MarShawn Lloyd turning into a track athlete after that hurdle and immediately goes into recruiting:
“We’re recruiting one right now who would be an incredible track athlete.”

It’s hard to say, but Beamer could be talking about Nyckoles Harbor, a 5-star athlete in the Class of 2023.
Beamer also touched on the status of Dylan Wonnum:
Shane Beamer:
Dylan Wonnum hurt his right foot late in Thursday’s practice. Not severe. Hopeful for next game, definitely ready for Kentucky.
Terrell Dawkins had non-ACL knee surgery late this week. He’ll be back but it won’t be for a while.

Here’s more from Beamer’s postgame press conference:
Shane Beamer says he told Marcus Satterfield earlier in the week that he wanted to run the ball 40 times. Gamecocks ran exactly 40 times.

“You young guys look that one up.”
Yeah, I had to look that one up.
