24/7Sports composite 4* RB C.J. Freeman has committed to the Gamecocks! Freeman is expected to be an early-enrolling prospect as well....

Here's a write up on him I did a while back, he's a really good player, he just recently got bumped up to a 4*. I think if he does the camp circuit this summer, we'll have to fight off some other schools for him.

Jr Year Highlight Reel

I can't figure out why he's a 3* and only has 5 offers, I could only speculate on the reason. However, he's a fantastic RB. He has SEC level speed for a RB, but his best attributes are his acceleration and cutting. He also can't be tackled with one arm or very well up high. He pumps his feet quickly coming through the line. He falls forward on contact. He breaks off tackles and gets two hands on the ball on contact. He can catch the ball, he can adjust his body in mid-air to make catches. He runs north south, but breaks out to the sides with his shoulders facing downfield. He moves laterally extremely well. He runs the ball out of the wildcat, he can run up the middle, he has good hands and can catch a sweep on the run.

I'm just really impressed. I would think his offer list would be huge, I'm curious why it isn't. It's going to be a battle pulling him from Va Tech, they're a childhood favorite of his.
