In fact, the previous coaching staff at USC originally offered him during his freshman season in November of 2020. Once Shane Beamer arrived, they wasted no time making it clear to Thompson that they still wanted him and offered him again. Meaning, he received two offers from South Carolina from different coaching staffs before any other school offered him. That loyalty paid dividends in his decision to pick the Gamecocks. <\/p>\n<p>Ranked as the consensus No.5 offensive tackle in the country, he chooses USC over schools including Clemson, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and Miami. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/south-carolina-gamecocks\/join\/?plan=annual\"><strong>[Subscribe to Gamecock Central until Aug. 31 for only $29.99!]<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>With Thompson\u2019s commitment, South Carolina has now landed the three top prospects from the Palmetto State for the 2024 class. He joins fellow four stars, offensive tackle Kam Pringle from Woodland High School and Greenville High School wide receiver Mazeo Bennett. Greenville\u2019s Blake Franks also recently committed to the Gamecocks. The offensive lineman is regarded as the eighth top prospect from the state. <\/p>\n\n<h2>Final injury report heading into South Carolina spring game<\/h2>\n<p>By: Collyn Taylor<\/p>\n<p>South Carolina will be without one of its potential starting linemen and a promising young freshman will be limited in Saturday\u2019s spring game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Gamecocks\u2019 guard and tackle Jakai Moore will miss Saturday\u2019s spring game dealing with familial matters, Shane Beamer said on Carolina Calls with Todd Ellis.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/south-carolina-gamecocks\/news\/final-injury-report-heading-into-south-carolina-spring-game\/\">Read More Here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/boards\/forums\/the-insiders-forum.75\/\"><strong>Discuss South Carolina football recruiting on The Insiders Forum!<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/south-carolina-gamecocks\/news\/video-4-star-ol-josiah-thompson-commits-to-south-carolina\/\">Video: 4-star OL Josiah Thompson commits to South Carolina<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/admin.on3.com\/\">On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>South Carolina continues to waste no time with their class of 2024 while also keeping&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2703","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2703","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2703"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2703\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2703"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2703"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2703"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
