Chase Robinson and Chris Lee preview the South Carolina football roster for the 2024 season and share their predictions for the Gamecocks. Topics include:

• The Gamecocks have a new quarterback in LaNorris Sellers, who brings size and mobility.

• Carolina’s had trouble running the ball in recent years, but Arkansas transfer Rocket Sanders and North Texas’s Oscar Addaway brighten the outlook considerably.

• Transfers also headline a revamped wide-receiver room which includes Gage Larvadian (Miami-Ohio), Jared Brown (Coastal Carolina), Amari Huggins-Bruce (Louisville) and Dalevon Campbell (Nevada), but the headliner is sophomore Nyck Harber, who hopes to turn his world-class speed into football success.

• The Gamecocks return plenty of experience on the offensive line, headed by All-Southeastern Conference candidate Vershon Lee and left tackle Tree Babalade, plus, returning starter Trovon Baugh and Florida Atlantic transfer Kamaar Bell.

• Coordinator Clayton White builds his defense around a solid unit that includes All-SEC candidates Tonka Hemingway, Debo Williams and Nick Emmanwori.

• Gilber Edmond returns from Florida State back to Columbia and is joined by plenty of depth, including portal pieces Kyle Kennard (Georgia Tech) and DeAndre Jules (Pitt).

• Bangally Kamara also transfers from Pitt to help a linebacking group that includes returnee Bam Martin-Scott.

• The Gamecocks build the secondary around one of the biggest and most physical safety tandems out there: DQ Smith and Emmanwori--but also get a boost from the return of 10-game starter O’Donnell Fortune at corner.

• Plus, Carolina has punter/passer extraordinaire Kal Kroeger back for another year.

• The Gamecocks have enough talent to go bowling, but will a schedule that includes LSU, Ole Miss, Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Missouri and Clemson permit it?
