Curt Bradley describes South Carolina pledge Deshaun Fenwick as a bruiser, a workhorse and a “bell cow.”
So a week after the Braden River (Florida) High School coach only gave his SEC-bound running back five carries in a game, Bradley called Fenwick’s name 18 times – in the first half.
On Oct. 26, Braden River won a game in which Fenwick had 220 yards before the second quarter ended. Feed the beast and he’ll reward you. That’s what Bradley learned this fall as Fenwick led the Pirates to a 10-2 record.
“He was ready to go from the first play until the last,” Bradley said.
