South Carolina Offensive Linemen Still Battling for Starting Positions
Intense competition for starting spots on the South Carolina offensive line
With the start of the 2023 college football season just around the corner, the competition for starting positions on the South Carolina offensive line is heating up. Several players are vying for the opportunity to protect quarterback Spencer Rattler and pave the way for running back MarShawn Lloyd.
Key Players in the Running
Among the players in the mix for starting roles are:
- Dylan Wonnum: A 6-foot-5, 310-pound redshirt junior who started 10 games at left tackle in 2022.
- Vershon Lee: A 6-foot-4, 310-pound redshirt junior who has started games at both guard and tackle.
- Antwane Wells Jr.: A 6-foot-3, 305-pound redshirt sophomore who impressed coaches with his performance in the spring.
Impact on Team Success
The performance of the offensive line will be crucial to South Carolina's success in 2023. A strong line will provide Rattler with time to pass and open up running lanes for Lloyd.
Coach Shane Beamer has emphasized the importance of developing depth along the offensive line. With several players capable of starting, the Gamecocks should have options in case of injuries or other setbacks.
Remaining Questions
As the season approaches, there are still questions about who will ultimately start on the offensive line for South Carolina. The competition is expected to continue through fall camp and into the early part of the season.
The Gamecocks will open their 2023 campaign on September 2nd at home against Georgia State. The performance of the offensive line will be a key factor in determining the outcome of the game.
