Gamecocks land running back AJ Turner
By Phil Kornblut
AJ Turner
RB AJ Turner of Centreville, VA Thursday night announced a commitment to USC from The Opening in Beaverton, OR. Turner had narrowed his list to a final five of the Gamecocks, Clemson, Virginia, Ohio State and Michigan State.
"I love the football coaches, the academics and the university itself," Turner said. "I'll be going into a great position for very early playing time."
Turner visited USC in April and saw things then that led him to believe the Gamecock program would be a good fit.
"They met the criteria that I have," Turner said. "Good academics and academic support, a campus ministry, I'm big on church, and a good football program with stability and bowl games."
Last season Turner rushed for 1258 yards and 31 touchdowns. He is USC's second commitment of the week and 22nd for the 2015 class. He's the Gamecocks' first running back commitment.

Good pick-up for USC at a position of need for the future. A.J. is a high 3* per 247, Rivals, and ESPN, and a 4* per Scout. He's had some solid results at The Opening which he is participating in, and most feel he'll be a unanimous 4* the next time ratings are updated. Hopefully we'll add 1 or 2 more RB to Turner in this class soon....

Awesome, glad we have him. He scored the 10th highest for RB/APB's at The Opening for SPARQ testing. I'm curious to see the feedback on how he did in the team drills/games. If he did well, he may get bumped up.

He's a solid 3 star but will move up in the rankings. Thank god you didn't put USC e like that other douche did. I'll never view him as a Carolina fan ever. I like the get though. I'm thinking we close with Bailey, Lewis, DJ Jones, Tyson or the Bama RB and one more. Can't remember off the top of my head.

Great pickup
South Carolina class is shaping up to be one of the best in the country.
