USC Recruiting

Four-star defensive lineman, top-300 national player visiting South Carolina

The South Carolina football staff was on Curtis Fann Jr. early.

The four-star defensive lineman from Twin City, Ga., received his offer back in May, before his junior season and days before Alabama came in with an offer. After that junior season, he’s ranked No. 251 nationally in the 247 Composite rankings, the No. 16 weakside defensive end in the country.

And he’s coming visit South Carolina this weekend.

The 6-foot-3, 245-pound defensive end had 64 tackles, 23 tackles for loss, seven sacks and four forced fumbles as a sophomore. In his first 11 games as a junior, he had 54 tackles, 20 for loss, eight sacks, three forced fumbles and a blocked kick for a 12-2 team.

Fann visited USC in mid-December. He named the Gamecocks in his top four, along with Clemson, Florida and Auburn.
