'24 SC OT Kam Pringle (uscjr)

[VolFreakJosh]

Dumb decision if it’s South Carolina

 

[bpalmer28]

So using that logic, you were supportive of the players like To'oTo'o who transferred out and critical of the players like Wright who stayed?

It’s well documented that players from that class were found to have received improper benefits. Many people have theorized, myself included, that Henry T, Morris, Gray, and maybe Lawrence had no choice but to leave due to the recruiting investigation. If they weren’t forced to leave, they very likely felt like severe sanctions were on the way.

Why would I be critical of Wright for staying? That doesn’t make sense to me. Not sure what your point was with that statement

We have to start winning the top notch OT battles if we want to compete for national championships. Elarbee did a great job with Wright this year, but imagine what he could do with a guy like this over 3-4 years

OL is the one position that you never have to land a 5* because it's the most developmental position in football. Yes, you still need guys with measurables and athletic ability, but no one is a "must have".

Technically I agree, but it sure does help! There’s reasons why Wright and Cade Mays have been our best OLs the past couple of years

A lot of that can still be credited to Elarbee developing their natural gifts. Wright improved exponentially under Elarbee.

I thought Wrightvwas good before Ellarbee. JMO

Wright was average before Elarbee and definitely wasn't living up to 5* status. Now he's a potential 1st round pick. Nearly our whole OL underperformed, under Pruitt's staff.

 

[tennesseefan31]

Assuming Carvin get's drafted, Elarbee is going to be 3/3 putting starting OL into the league.

Meh. He wasn't terrible or anything but he wasn't exactly very good. Will Friend was and is a terrible OL coach

 

[allvolrecruiting]

I could see if you want to say Cade or even Jerome Carvin was on his own. But Elarbee was the main coaching reason for the developments of Darnell Wright, Gerald Mincey, Javontez Spraggins, Cooper Mays, Jackson Lampley, Masai Reddick/Addison Nichols

He was serviceable because he's a freak athlete for that size. Ellarbee just unlocked his potential.

Agreed. That's a good way of putting it

In interviews Elarbee gives Darnell all the credit for turning the corner, but i don’t think it’s a coincidence he became the o line coach when that happened

Yea, that dude had four 5* and a 5th year high 4* Center on the line and couldn’t make it work

 

[VolByLaw]

Glen Elarbee started the week in Pennsylvania, including stopping in at the school of 2024 four-star offensive tackle Kevin Heywood. Heywood is expected to be in town next week for Tennessee's second junior day. Elarbee also spent time in the DMV checking on guys at various programs. He will end the week in South Carolina, including checking on top-rated offensive tackle Kam Pringle, who is just a few days away from announcing his decision.

Pringle about to commit to USCe but will he stick until signing day 2023

SC might only win 3 games next season. No more than 5. The wheels on that bus are about to fall off.

 

[peaygolf]

I'd rather have Daniel Calhoun anyway...........

Not hating on the kid, congrats to him.

But I seriously question anyone's mind who would choose to play a) for the Lamecocks b) for that douche bag.

Based on what? I think we all have thought SC would suck these past 2 years. They have been the opposite. They haven’t been great but they haven’t sucked.

 

[LowKey]

Rattler only plays well when people don't expect him to. By all means, hype them up.

What do you base this on? They ended the regular season playing great, with wins over us (remember?) and Clemson.

Mays wasn’t. The OLine got better when he left. He never lived up to his billing. Cooper is better.

Agreed though I think Spraggins would have developed well regardless of who coached him. He’s got that dog in him that you see in all the best O-linemen.
