Spencer Rattler headlines Gamecocks’ class as Top 5 portal prospect
With the May 1 transfer deadline now passed, On3 is locking in its 2022 transfer portal rankings and as one might expect South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler is, well, way up there.
The five-star who transferred from Oklahoma to South Carolina in January is ranked the No. 3 quarterback and the No. 5 overall prospect with a four-star rating in the On3 Transfer Portal Rankings.
Rattler has been the headliner for the Gamecocks’ nationally ranked portal class since he and tight end teammate Austin Stogner announced their intentions to transfer to South Carolina.
“After Lincoln Riley left for USC and not seeing a clear future in Norman, Rattler re-connected with former Oklahoma assistant Shane Beamer,” said On3’s Pete Nakos. “Reunited in the SEC, Rattler brings immediate legitimacy to a South Carolina team that suddenly has major momentum entering the summer.
That helped kick off what is now a nine-man incoming transfer class that On3 deemed as the fifth biggest winner in the portal this offseason.
The South Carolina incoming transfer who made the biggest jump in the new rankings is wide receiver Antwane Wells Jr. who joined the Gamecocks in the spring after two incredibly productive seasons at James Madison.
