Is this the BEST roster in 20 years? And Bill Connelly's SP+ Projections for USC

Where does South Carolina Football stack up in Bill Connelly’s early 2025 SP+ rankings? We break down where the Gamecocks land and what it means for Shane Beamer’s squad heading into a pivotal season. With fall camp just one week away, we also highlight the biggest offseason body transformations and which players have made the most noticeable physical leaps heading into camp. Plus, we take a deep dive into South Carolina’s historic blue chip ratio — the highest in 20 years — and what that says about the program's trajectory. The Gamecocks have now signed 34 blue chip prospects over the last 3 recruiting cycles — the most in school history over any 3-year stretch. What does that mean for 2025 and beyond?
