The University of South Carolina’s homecoming – and the all-important parade – is Saturday.

The parade starts at 3 p.m. and runs from the Colonial Life Arena to the Horseshoe, with Cocky in the lead. Grand marshals are alumni Langston Moore and Preston Thorne, authors of #JustAChicken, a coming of age story with Cocky as the main character.
