20 Players OUT, Only 1 IN — Are the Gamecocks Falling Behind?

South Carolina may already be playing catch-up in the transfer portal. After losing 20 players in the opening days of the window and landing just one commitment, questions are growing about whether the South Carolina Gamecocks are falling behind key SEC rivals. In this episode, we break down what the early portal numbers really mean for Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks, whether patience or urgency is needed, and how roster attrition could impact South Carolina’s depth heading into the 2026 season. Is this a temporary lull—or a sign of bigger portal challenges in Columbia? We also compare South Carolina’s portal approach to other SEC programs, examine positional losses, and discuss what the next few weeks must look like for the Gamecocks to stabilize the roster. 👉 Subscribe for more SEC football, transfer portal updates, recruiting breakdowns, and Gamecock coverage. #SouthCarolina #Gamecocks #TransferPortal #SECFootball #CollegeFootball #ShaneBeamer #CFBNews Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOGamecocks?sid=YouTube Locked On College Conferences, HBCU, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege Follow on social media Twitter/X: @verndumbquist Twitter/X: @LockedOnSC Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100091552218542
