For South Carolina football, no position has faced as much turnover in the last year as the tight end group. A unit that was manned by players like Jaheim Bell, Austin Stogner, Nate Adkins, and Trae Kenion lost all four players (Bell and Stogner to the transfer portal, Adkins to the NFL, and Kenion to retirement).
The room was flipped in just one offseason, however, as tight ends coach Jody Wright and offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains brought in Trey Knox (Arkansas), Josh Simon (Western Kentucky), and Nick Elksnis (Florida) from the transfer portal and Connor Cox, Reid Mikeska, Kamron Sandlin, Maurice Brown, and Lukas Vozeh from the high school ranks.
