Where things stand with Cam Smith’s enrollment plans at South Carolina

South Carolina signee CB Cam Smith still plans to enroll in school early and is just waiting on the go ahead from the NCAA.

Smith said the hold up for him was his SAT score improved quite a bit from his first test to the second, so he had to get the second score validated and sent in to the NCAA. That has been done and he expects to hear back from the NCAA later this week or next.

He will enroll at that point.

Smith is one of the top members of South Carolina’s 2019 class. The tall corner out of Westwood High School came on late and impressed at the All-American Bowl practices.

The 6-foot, 171 pounder had 65 tackles, four for loss, 16 pass breakups and four forced fumbles as a senior.

Fellow expected early enrollees Traevon Kenion and Tyquan Johnson had also not arrived on campus as of last weekend.

Notes:

▪ Pensacola, Fla., offensive lineman Darius Washington remains undecided. He took official visits to South Carolina, Mississippi State and Miami. He said he continues to hear from the Gamecocks. Clemson also has been in touch and he said things are “up in the air” with the Tigers at this point. Washington did not want to reveal if he has any more official visits planned at this point. He has been committed to Mississippi State and has publicly maintained that despite his other visits.

▪ Kannapolis, N.C. defensive end Kedrick Bingley-Jones decommitted from Florida. He has a USC offer among many others. TheBigSpur reported he will visit USC this Saturday.

▪ Hammond 2020 defensive lineman Alex Huntley plans to visit tje Gamecocks on Saturday. He also told GoVols247 he will visit Tennessee on Jan. 26.

▪ Rome, Ga., coach John Reid said his running back Jamious Griffin is not planning a visit to South Carolina. He said former running backs coach Bobby Bentley called, but Griffin is still firm with N.C. State commitment. Clemson came through last month but there’s been nothing more. Griffin has visited State, Auburn and Georgia Tech. Reid said Griffin might not take any more visits but if he does Miami might get one. Alabama coach Nick Saban was at the school Tuesday as were coaches from Michigan State, Colorado State and Mississippi State. Griffin rushed for 2,800 yards and 28 touchdowns this season.
