Will Muschamp's arrival as coach at South Carolina presented immediate success for the Gamecocks. He helped get the Gamecocks out of the SEC cellar with a bowl appearance, found a hotshot young quarterback (finally) and was the brains behind a defense that wasn't great, but was light years better than the previous unit that ranked at the bottom of the SEC in just about everything.
For Muschamp to continue the program's upward momentum, he'll need that defense to stay the course. And while questions remain throughout, the biggest issue facing this unit heading into the summer months is whether or not this team will have adequate pass-rushing ability.
