Transfer Receiver Enrolls At South Carolina
It was reported on Monday afternoon by GamecockCentral's Chris Clark that Memphis wide receiver Eddie Lewis, a portal target identified by the staff earlier this month, has officially enrolled at South Carolina.
Lewis will have one year of eligibility remaining for the Gamecocks next year. Lewis is considered a weapon as a receiver and return man. From his years at Rutgers and Memphis making plays, he's totaled 94 catches for 1,173 yards and twelve receiving touchdowns.
Transfer Recruiting
Eddie entered the transfer portal on January 11th and had a visit set up for the 13th and 14th, and with the deadline being the 18th, he took a quick visit to Colorado to see what Deion Sanders' program was about. With the recent hype around it, the staff knew he would be up there with Deion and still felt very confident in getting Eddie as a Gamecock, as we now know Deion couldn't work his magic with this one.
Impact on South Carolina
Eddie is going to bring a lot of speed to South Carolina. He should be a big-time playmaker for this offense, a reliable target for his starting quarterback, Spencer Rattler, and a weapon on special teams for coach Pete Lembo.
