The Story: My Motivation — As the offseason winds down, Gamecocks past and present are gearing up for new chapters. For linebacker Demetrius Knight Jr. that means starting his NFL career. A journey that comes with extra motivation for the married father of two. For defensive coordinator Clayton White, that means replacing him and several other starters from a talented defense. Both are ready for their new challenges as the 2025 season nears.
