SC 247
Defensive line coach Deke Adams will hit some of his recruiting territories tomorrow as well and one of his stops will be to see class of 2014 four-star running back Derrell Scott (Havelock, N.C./Havelock). The Gamecocks will book end his Florida official and Tennessee in-home with tomorrow's stop and the Steve Spurrier in-home next week. While it currently looks like Spurrier will get the last in-home -- and he certainly will out of favorites Tennessee and South Carolina -- it's not yet been determined if or when Florida head coach Will Muschamp will make an in-home visit. Florida actually landed a running back last week, and while we're told that the Gators have told Scott they're definitely taking another one, word from the Florida side is that they may or may not. This remains primarily a South Carolina-Tennessee battle with the Volunteers likely holding the current edge. I've chatted when someone close to Scott at length twice this week, though, and was told that he truly hasn't made a final decision yet.

Thats great but i would much rather have his position coach recruiting him rathet than someone not even on his side og the ball
I like our chances with Scott
But with recruiting you know how it works....it's usually more about who you know in the kids circle more so than position coach/kid relationship.
Building that relationship with the guy that will be coaching you is certainly a positive for us though. Someone that will be directly involved with your development is more important than someone that is on the other side of the ball.I like our chances with Scott

"Quick note on Derrell Scott announcement...
As it's already been reported, he will make his announcement between Tennessee, South Carolina and Florida on Jan. 27. It will take place at his school and the time has been set for 3:15.
Jones will be in-home the week before as will Steve Spurrier."
