South Carolina could use another big man. Some names on the grad transfer market

South Carolina basketball coach Frank Martin goes deep on recruiting the state and the Gamecocks' historical success of keeping prospects at home. By

South Carolina basketball was already down its top big man from last season with Chris Silva’s departure.

Jason Cudd transferring wasn’t a surprise given the smaller role he held, but Felipe Haase, whose transfer came out on Thursday, had averaged 21.5 minutes per game his first two season. It leaves the Gamecocks with a frontcourt that looks like this:

u25aa Alanzo Frink - A sturdy big man who had defensive issues last season and looked very much like a freshman

u25aa Wildens Leveque - A burly, athletic incoming freshman

u25aa Jalyn McCreary - A springy late add to the class

That’s a group light on experience that could perhaps use a more burly presence if one is available.
