South Carolina Wide Receiver Is Set to Enter the Transfer Portal

South Carolina's 2025 leader in catches is set to enter the transfer portal. Vandrevius Jacobs is the second Gamecocks receiver to announce plans of leaving the team when the portal window on Friday.
Jacobs, a 6-foot and 182 pound receiver from Vero Beach, Florida, joined the Gamecocks prior to the 2024 season. In 2024, he appeared in nine games, making four starts against Old Dominion, LSU, Alabama, and Oklahoma. That season he caught 12 passes for 184 yards, with his highest output coming against Old Dominion (59 yards). With several players above him on the depth chart off to the NFL, Jacobs would be up for a bigger role in 2025. A role he took full advantage of.
This past season Jacobs saw career highs in receptions (32), yards (548), touchdowns (4), and yards per game (45.7). His 548 receiving yards and four touchdowns were second on the team behind Nyck Harbor's 618 yards and six touchdowns. Jacobs will now be looking for his third home after beginning his career in Tallahassee, Florida, with the Florida State Seminoles.
