Daley returns

South Carolina commitment Dennis Daley spent some time on campus this past weekend as an unofficial visitor. The Gamecocks 2017 offensive tackle commitment from Georgia Military College caught up with offensive line coach Eric Wolford, who he’d already seen twice this month.

“The first time we met, he came down here one day. He just touched base, we got to know each other, shared some personal things,” Daley said. “I really liked him from the first time I met him. He came off as a good guy, straightup. I can tell he’s a man of his word. It was really good. Then he came back like four days after he came the first time. We got together again and we talked again, talked more about school and how things were going to go. It was really good.

“He told me how important (I am) to him and to the South Carolina program.”

Daley, who went to Ridge View High School (Columbia, S.C.) before the Gamecocks placed him at the junior college in Milledgeville, Ga., checked out a few things around campus, including 650 Lincoln, where the players are housed. He also tried on a jersey and participated in a photo shoot on Saturday.
