Episode Details

Spring practice is in the books for South Carolina Gamecocks football — so what do we actually KNOW heading into the 2026 season? 👀🐔

In this episode, we break down the 3 things we’re most confident in coming out of spring ball, including a major boost in overall talent. Freshmen and newcomers are already raising the floor of this roster and look ready to contribute right away — a huge development for South Carolina’s depth and long-term outlook.

We also discuss how the offseason coaching staff changes, led by offensive coordinator Kendal Briles and the rest of the revamped group, have injected a noticeable new energy and urgency into the program. From practice tempo to player development, the difference has been clear.

But it’s not all settled just yet…

We dive into the 3 biggest questions still facing South Carolina as well. One of the biggest storylines is quarterback LaNorris Sellers learning yet another new offensive system — his third in as many years. Can he take the next step despite the constant change?

We also take a hard look at the offensive line and whether the group can provide the consistency needed in the SEC, along with a major question at the skill positions: who is going to step up and become THE go-to playmaker on offense?
