South Carolina defense gains hopeful injury updates
By Jack Veltri
South Carolina received some much-needed positive news one day after a 48-7 loss to Georgia.
According to Shane Beamer, Darius Rush and Devonni Reed, who exited Saturday’s game with injuries, had good test results today and seem on track to play Saturday against Charlotte. Rush left with a hamstring injury while Reed hurt his hip and began taking X-rays almost immediately.
Beamer said he’s optimistic they’ll be able to play against Charlotte this weekend. However, he did not provide an update on Stone Blanton who departed late with a shoulder injury.
The Gamecocks were also down five starters defensively against the Bulldogs, including Mo Kaba and Jordan Strachan, who are out for the year. Cam Smith, RJ Roderick, Boogie Huntley and David Spaulding all did not play.
