Sunday injury report: Several Gamecocks return to practice
As South Carolina football returns to SEC play following two straight out-of-conference games, the Gamecocks are continuing to get closer to full strength.
Head coach Shane Beamer said on his teleconference Sunday evening that cornerback Darius Rush, nickelback David Spaulding and defensive tackle Boogie Huntley all practiced Sunday night as the Gamecocks began preparation for Kentucky.
“We’re in decent shape,” Beamer said. “Just got off the practice field, Rush practiced, Spaulding practiced, Huntley was out there. I feel like we’ll be in as good a shape as we have been since game 3 after we had those injuries in the Arkansas game. Really the only ones I would say would be questionable right now would be (Dylan) Wonnum and Trai Jones but we’re still optimistic they’ll be able to do something Saturday in Lexington.”
