The Cockdown rolls along with a look at redshirt senior receiver Carlton Heard and his chances at some receptions this season.

College Career:
After redshirting his Freshman season as a walk-on at Gardner-Webb, Heard broke out in 2012 for the Runnin' Bulldogs, producing 422 yards and a touchdown on 31 catches. After the season, he decided to transfer and walked-on to the Gamecocks in 2013, but was ineligible due to transfer rules. In 2014, after impressing the coaches enough on the practice fields for over a year and a half, Heard earned himself a scholarship.
