According to thestate.com, South Carolina has officially offered cornerback Shilo Sanders, the son of NFL great Deion Sanders.

Shilo is a 6-foot, 180 pound DB from Cedar Hill, Texas. According to 247Sports, the three-star recruit is the No. 1,072 ranked prospect in the 2019 class and the No. 113 CB.

“I’m absolutely grateful for the opportunity and I think it would be a great place for me,” Sanders said. “I’ve gotten to speak with Coach T-Rob (Travaris Robinson) and Coach (Will) Muschamp. Most definitely I will be visiting.”

Shilo would be a nice pickup for the Gamecocks, who right now have the No. 7 class in the SEC and the No. 16 class in the nation.

Other schools in play for Shilo are Georgia, Oregon, Nebraska and Louisiana Tech, but at this point, he’s keeping his options open.

“I’m open to all opportunities at the moment,” he said.
