South Carolina head coach Will Muschamp boiled National Signing Day down to its most basic and brutal point Wednesday: “You have to continue to evolve. You have to continue to add big, strong people to your roster.”
Muschamp completed, or at least almost completed, his third signing class with the Gamecocks on Wednesday. He and his staff inherited a roster that had slipped below the competitive surface in the final years of the Steve Spurrier era. Fixing that took recruiting and took time. It will take more of both, but South Carolina can at least tread water in the SEC now.
