🎥 TAILGATE TALKS
Tailgate Talks. It's been 16 years, but every time South Carolina plays LSU on the gridiron an infamous moment gets retold like it was yesterday. Stephen Garcia vs the referee. All these years we've all wondered what was going through Wilbur Hackett Jr.'s head, and why he laid the boom on the Gamecock quarterback that day in 2008. Well, wonder no more because we tracked him down and his side of the story is fascinating. Jump into Tailgate Talks with us to hear these two hash out a moment they'll never live down. We also have reaction from South Carolina's massive win over Kentucky, and preview the matchup against LSU with former Tiger, Jacob Hester.
📈 STOCK UP
🔺 We’re Back. Did you miss us? Because we missed you! The 25th-ranked women’s soccer team returns to the pitch after a week off. They’ll host Georgetown for Senior Night at 7 p.m. The first 200 fans in attendance will receive jersey rally towels. Come out and support the seniors!
🔺 Gamecocks Give Back. Gamecock student-athletes are breaking records with their community service. They recorded 954 hours of service work this summer, with over 700 of those hours coming in August. Last year, Gamecocks posted 4,460 hours of community service.
🔺 Remembering A Legend. Former Gamecock and South Carolina Hall of Famer Kevin Long passed away this week at the age of 69. He was the first Gamecock to rush for 1,000 yards in a season. He remains 10th on the all-time career rushing list with 2,372 yards. Long played for the New York Jets for five seasons after being drafted in 1977. He will be greatly missed.
🔺 Mark Your Calendars. The 2025 Gamecock softball SEC schedule is here! Coach Chastain’s first SEC series will be at defending national champion Oklahoma, March 7-9. They’ll host Georgia the next weekend. Other home games include Ole Miss, Kentucky, and Alabama. The Gamecocks will play LSU, Arkansas, and Auburn on the road before the SEC Tournament in Athens, Georgia.
