South Carolina Gamecocks Land Top Transfer Portal Talent in Rahsul Faison
The South Carolina Gamecocks have made a major splash in the college football transfer portal, securing a commitment from Utah State running back Rahsul Faison. The announcement, confirmed by On3Sports, marks a significant addition to South Carolina’s backfield heading into the 2025 season.
Faison, a 6-foot, 200-pound standout, delivered an impressive performance during the 2024 season with the Aggies. He logged 198 rushing attempts for 1,109 yards and eight touchdowns, showcasing his ability as a dynamic and consistent playmaker. His size, speed, and knack for breaking tackles made him one of the most sought-after players in the transfer market.
The commitment signals head coach Shane Beamer’s continued success in leveraging the transfer portal to strengthen the Gamecocks’ roster. Beamer has prioritized adding experienced talent to complement a young core, ensuring South Carolina remains competitive in the ultra-competitive SEC.
“Rahsul brings a lot to the table,” Beamer said in a statement. “He’s a physical runner with the ability to make big plays, and we’re thrilled to have him join our program. He fits perfectly with the culture and vision we have for this team.”
Faison’s addition comes at a critical time as South Carolina seeks to improve its ground game. His proven ability to produce at a high level could make him an immediate impact player in the Gamecocks’ offensive scheme.
With this move, the Gamecocks continue to build momentum as they gear up for what promises to be a pivotal 2025 season.
