🎥 THE STORY

The Story - Brotherly Love. You've heard Coach Beamer constantly preach about love in his program. Well, it's not just for show. This Gamecock football team truly cares for each other, and it starts in the quarterback room. With LaNorris Sellers out, transfers Robby Ashford and Davis Beville stepped in as the signal callers against Akron and took care of business. While these three might be battling for snaps every single day, when the lights turn on, they know their brothers are behind them. Go inside the quarterback room and see how competition and common goals have led to a love only known by brothers.

🔺 Back At Home. The Gamecocks return to Williams-Brice Stadium this weekend after a bye week. They’ll host No. 12 Ole Miss tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. on ESPN. Tickets are sold out and fans are asked to wear garnet! Fans are also asked to stay in their seats at halftime to honor first responders and members of the Spring Athletics’ Director’s Honor Roll.

She holds both indoor and outdoor 200m program records at South Carolina. She won three NCAA championships and five SEC titles in three years.
