Bennett, who stands at just shy of 6-feet tall, 175 pounds, chooses USC over schools including Alabama, Florida State, Miami, Michigan State and Stanford. In October he was originally committed to Tennessee. But two months later be decommitted from the Vols and reopened his commitment. One reason why? The Gamecocks never stopped recruiting him.
Prior to going public with his commitment to USC, Bennett said, “The consistency in the program with recruiting me. They never stop. That’s the one thing I can say: they never stop coming. They never stop trying to get me, so that’s one thing I respect about them.”
