South Carolina coaches hit the road Monday to see as many recruits as possible while the head coaching search continues. One of their first stops was in Conway to see former commitment wide receiver Bryan Edwards.

“Coach Spurrier Jr. and Coach Elliott were here on Monday,” said Conway coach Chuck Jordan. “I think he will take an official visit to USC before Christmas. But he could make a decision before that and won’t take a visit.”

Edwards has taken an official visit to Clemson and Jordan said his decision is between the Tigers and Gamecocks. He doesn’t believe Georgia is a factor at this point.

“He’s trying to be real deliberate especially having decommitted,” Jordan said. “He understands he needs to be absolutely for sure. He’ll tell me when he feels good about it. Clemson wants him to make a decision soon and Carolina wants him to wait. They are just in different places.”

USC continues to recruit Edwards as a receiver. Clemson reportedly sees him as a safety in their program.
