It's been a while since we had new recruiting news for this class...
4* DT Kelcey Griffin is reported to have committed to South Carolina today!
Griffin (6-2, 282), a Rivals 250 and 12th DT, had verbally committed to UGA in September but his commitment wasn't accepted. IMO Griffin is better suited for the 4-3 defensive scheme than UGA's 3-4, which is why they hesitated on accepting him....also UGA feels they have a good chance on getting some DL prospects higher up in rankings...
But Kelcey is a solid prospect (4* 94 ranking and #5 DT per 24/7 sports) and a great pick-up for the Gamecocks! We needed a quality DT in this class, and we got one!

Also OLB and former commit for the 2013 class Brandon Golson - who was removed from listings as a commit to USC a month or so ago, has now recently committed to Arizona. I forgot to update that a while back...

I love it when we sign those 4* Georgia HS athletes ... they just about always make the Dawgs pay down the road, and I'll bet Griffin will too, first chance he gets. He's going to have extra motivation because of how all of this went down.
