South Carolina football commit’s senior season was over early ... until it wasn’t

The only feeling when South Carolina football commitment R.J. Roderick was told his season was over: “Hurtful”

It was a moment that had him reassessing, thinking about the role the sport played in his life, getting ready to make his move from Cane Bay High School to Columbia when he enrolls early (he says that’s set in stone, and he’s already registered for classes). But then came the news.

His high school days aren’t done yet.

After missing five games with a stress fracture in his back, Roderick got cleared for his team’s final regular season game and the playoffs.
