Gamecocks coaches drop by Byrnes (SC) High School

Posted Jan 31, 2009
The Byrnes Rebels once again have a bountiful crop of junior prospects led by RB Marcus Lattimore. And the Gamecock coaches made sure they got his attention. "I couldn't talk to them, but I just shook their hands," Lattimore said.

Lattimore and several of his teammates will go to junior day at Florida State Saturday. He will be joined by Brandon Willis, Corey Miller, [UNC recruit] Nick Jones and Jazz King. He also plans to take in junior days at USC, Clemson and Maryland. He recently visited Duke for a basketball game.

Lattimore has 22 offers and said he is focusing right now of the group made up of USC, Clemson, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida State and Duke, and there is no favorite. (The State)
