How to watch future South Carolina Gamecocks in 2026 All-American Game
Three future South Carolina Gamecock football players will get a chance to showcase their talents on a national stage Saturday.
Defensive end Julian Walker, receiver Sequel Patterson and defensive lineman Aiden Harris all will be playing in the Navy All-American Game in San Antonio, Texas. The game, which is for top junior and senior players in the country, will be at 1 p.m. Saturday and televised on NBC and streamed on Peacock.
All three will be on the East squad along with South Pointe defensive lineman Seth Tillman, one of the top juniors in South Carolina. Look out for them: Walker will be wearing No. 10 with Patterson having No. 12, Harris (10) and Tillman (13).
Walker and Harris will enroll in classes at USC next week, while Indian Land’s Patterson, who reclassified from Class of 2027 to 2026, will arrive on campus in the summer.
The 6-foot-5 Walker was the last piece for the Gamecocks for the Class of 2026. He originally was committed to Michigan but chose USC days before Dutch Fork’s state championship game on Dec 4.
The four-star prospect led Dutch Fork with 75 tackles (26 for loss) and 14 sacks. He has had a strong showing in All-American Game practices and was one of the top performers on Monday, according to 247Sports.
“It’s a loaded group of pass rushers for the East squad, and Julian Walker was the real eye-catcher during the first on-field work of the week,” 247Sports Andrew Irvins wrote. “He’s got a prototypical frame and knows how to weaponize his length. Walker won multiple 1-on-1 reps with a long-arm move as he got up and underneath opponents while building speed.”
Patterson had a strong junior season for Indian Land, which advanced to its first state semifinal. He finished with 1,476 total yards and accounted for 16 touchdowns
Patterson also plays basketball and leads the Warriors in scoring at 14 points per game.
Harris had a big senior season at Weddington High (North Carolina), finishing with 84 tackles (17.5 for loss) and 11 sacks. His twin brother, Andrew, also is a USC signee and is already on campus.
Tillman was part of South Pointe’s state title team along with USC signee J’Zavien Currence. The junior had 61 tackles (27.5 for loss) and 8.5 sacks.
Tillman told 247Sports this week that he has visits planned for South Carolina and Georgia later this month.
