re: State of Gamecock Recruiting for 2018

Ok 1A could make sense. Small school in middle of nowhere SC typically means, and I'm not trying to stereotype here, little $$ in the area. A lot of recruiting rankings especially early on depends as much on getting your name out there by paying to go to on campus camps and things like "the opening" etc as actual talent at the position. Now that he has not only gotten an offer from us but we have accepted his commitment, I would expect more people to look into him and thus his offer list will rise.

FWIW Tony at 247 mentioned that we will likely take 3 at his position and if he had to pick he said he would take Rush over Demarcus Gregory from Byrnes and this was before the #SpursUp. His complete list was Darius Rush, Dennis Smith, and Josh Vann(4*).
