Former South Carolina offensive lineman Kam Pringle is transferring to Syracuse, the former four-star prospect announced on Tuesday.

Pringle has already signed with the Orange, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.

South Carolina Transfer Portal Resources:

The 6-foot-8, 336-pounder entered the transfer portal last week after one season in Columbia.

“First off, I would like to thank God for putting me in this position! I want to thank the University of South Carolina, the amazing coaching staff, my teammates, the fans, and everyone associated with the university who have had a hand in my success during my time spent here.” Pringle wrote on his graphic. “To South Carolina, thank you for the lifelong friendships and memories. I am appreciative of the opportunities I’ve received here.”

“After discussing with my family and thinking long and hard on my decision, I have decided to enter my name into the transfer portal with four years of eligibility remaining,” wrote Pringle. “I look forward to the opportunities God has in store for me!”

Pringle appeared in one game last fall for South Carolina playing some snaps during their final game of September. That would end up with him redshirting, which gives him those four years of college eligibility left to use at his next program.

Pringle, a native of Dorchester, played his high school football at Woodland. He was the No. 269 overall recruit there as a four-star prospect in the 2024 cycle. He also rated as the No. 18 OT in the class and the No. 3 player out of the state of South Carolina after only OT Josiah Thompson (South Carolina) and WR Braylon Staley (Tennessee). That’s according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
