This has to be the greatest class A&T have recruited on paper. I would say though the 6’7 DE looks kind of slow but I’ll keep watching his tape. There are times when he looks kind of stiff and times where he appears to be explosive. I think he was probably viewed as a development project with a tremendous upside ... just like DJ when he got here.

This kid so big he can almost be another Brandon park as a LT. At times he seem to be fast and at time he does not.

I agree. Def has tremondous potential. I have faith our coaches will develop him nicely. I'm still so excited over Prestige Edwards commit. 6'5 and runs like a gazelle

Gamecocks transfer now with former USC teammate on powerful FCS squad
Transferring from the South Carolina football program brought Antoine Wilder a good level of success. In his first year with North Carolina A&T, he was the leading tackler on a 10-win team and became an all-conference player.
Former Gamecocks receiver-turned-defensive back Korey Banks is making the same transition from USC to the Aggies.
The Tyrone, Georgia product was signed with the team back on February’s signing day. According to the school’s release, he’d enrolled at the start of the spring semester.
He had announced his transfer in October.
Banks told The State he’s playing running back and wide receiver in Greensboro.
Banks came to South Carolina as a three-star prospect in Will Muschamp’s first signing class, picking USC on signing day. He was the No. 790 player in his class in the 247 Sports composite rankings, the No. 121 wide receiver and 73rd-best player in Georgia.
His last year in high school, the 5-foot-11, 190-pounder caught 61 passes for 813 yards and six touchdowns.
His first year on campus, he played in six games, helping in spots when injuries ravaged the receiver spot. He caught one pass for 5 yards. The next year, the staff moved him over to play defensive back. which meant a redshirt season.
He got in on defense during a 2018-opening blowout of Coastal Carolina and got some special teams work in three more games, but ultimately transferred during the team’s bye week.
He’s joining a program that has become a preeminent power in the MEAC on the FCS level. The Aggies have gone 50-10 the past five years, playing in three of the past four Celebration Bowls (the reward for a conference title) and going to the FCS playoffs once.
Wilder is still on the team for another year and Banks should have two seasons to play. Former Gamecock Jamari Smith also transferred from USC and posted 700 total yards as a versatile back.

Our success will ultimately boil down to qb play. I know we have talent but, will they be ready...?

Any news on additional transfers. I know we were entertaining a few lineman but I have not heard of any final decision. I thought we were in the running for a transfer lineman from Miss State ?

It looks like UCF swooped in and scooped up Tony Gray. However, my gut tells me that there will be a surprise or two on campus in a couple of weeks.
