Georgia runner is committed to Gamecocks, but Auburn still a school he holds onto

South Carolina 2021 commitment Lovasea Carroll of Warrenton, Georgia made an unofficial visit to Auburn on Saturday for the Big Cat Weekend. Carroll committed to the Gamecocks in early May but he has not shut down his recruiting. But even after his time with the Tigers, Carroll is holding firm with his commitment.

“It was a great visit,” Carroll said. “It really was just hanging with the coaches and getting to know them personally. I wouldn’t say it would affect my commitment, but Auburn is one of the schools I would hold on to if I ever de-committed.”

Carroll said he hopes to return to USC for a visit this Saturday. He also visited May 4, the day before he committed.

Carroll said the Gamecocks like him as a running back though he also plays in the slot and the secondary. Last season he rushed for 1,446 yards and 9 touchdowns.

Carroll also holds offers from Georgia, Mississippi State, Alabama and Cincinnati.

Notes:

Carol City, Florida 2021 running back Katravis Geter (5-foot-8, 180 pounds) was offered by USC.
