There’s something missing from this year’s South Carolina recruiting class.
There is hustle but not the hurry. The sweating is present. Scrambling is not.
A year after a fast-and-furious finish to the 2016 signing class, Will Muschamp and his staff have put together this year’s group at a more deliberate pace.
“Recruiting is a marathon,” Muschamp said. “You just have to keep chopping away at it every single day.”
The Gamecocks are on track to sign a Top 25 recruiting class, Muschamp’s first full class as the Gamecocks’ head coach. Last year was considered a “transition class” and bridged prospects recruited by Steve Spurrier and Muschamp’s staff.
