Some more write ups I missed on other recruits for the Class of 2013
LHP Cole McMillan:
RHP Tyler Haswell:
RHP Preston Johnson:
LHP Josh Reagen:
LHP Cole McMillan:
quote:
McMillan is committed as a walk-on but is also a player who could be a future gem. He has split time between football and baseball during his high school career but will focus on baseball going forward. He has a fastball that ranges from 82-84 and a big curve ball. If he can make a jump in velocity, he could be a big contributor before his time at South Carolina is over.
RHP Tyler Haswell:
quote:
South Carolina recently picked up a commitment from Tyler Haswell (Lawrenceville, Ga./Peachtree Ridge), who stands 6-foot-1, 175. I didn't expect the Gamecocks to take another player in the 2013 class but the right guy did come along. Haswell is a guy who can run his fastball up to 91 but will hover around the upper 80s right now. He is a strike-thrower that has a plus-changeup. Head coach Chad Holbrook has scouted him before and he had a good summer in the East Cobb organization. Sammy Esposito saw him a couple of weeks back as well and he jumped off the page with his performance
RHP Preston Johnson:
quote:
Like Caldwell, Johnson signed with Winthrop out of high school and things just didn't go very well for him there. He transferred down to Chipola and became a very different pitcher. The coaches scouted him during fall games at Chipola and a lot of big colleges came calling. He chose the Gamecocks over Miami and others.
LHP Josh Reagen:
quote:
Reagan used to be committed to College of Charleston but decided to open things back up when CofC went from the SoCon to CAA. He's regarded as the top left-handed pitcher in the state. He's a low-80s pitcher and will creep up to around 84.

Nice article by JW on 2013 Committ Taylor Widener that was just written up.

BLYTHEWOOD - Ranked as the No. 3 player in the state of South Carolina by Diamond Prospects, class of 2013 standout Taylor Widener (Aiken/South Aiken) plays every game in front of a handful of scouts or more. A two-way player as a power right-handed arm and sweet-swinging left-handed hitter, Widener has a chance to pitch and hit for the Gamecocks. Prior to the SC Diamond Invitational, Widener discussed how his season is going thus far, where he wants to improve his game, and also a little bit about the MLB Draft.

I mentioned in the VIP Room earlier this week that the good news for South Carolina fans is that RHP/OF Taylor Widener is trending towards school. He is one of a few guys who I have considered up in the air for a while but things are looking up for the Gamecocks at this point. That doesn't mean that he's playing poorly and it doesn't mean that his level of play is dropping. What it means is that scouts aren't ready to give him the kind of money he would require to skip school.
