Juice Wells "Getting Closer & Closer" To Potential Return

South Carolina's football team could see one of their offensive stars back on the field soon, but will be down another starting o-lineman in week ten.

Ten weeks into the college football season, there's one universal guarantee about every major college football program: everyone is dealing with injuries. In the case of Shane Beamer and South Carolina's Football program, they've likely become numb to their own injury situation.

The Gamecocks lost multiple key players on both sides of the ball in week one against North Carolina, and since then, have just seen the list grow longer, but one big name could be coming off that list soon. Beamer said during his weekly Tuesday press conference that wide receiver Juice Wells is "getting closer and closer," and although he doesn't know if he'll be ready this week, he's not ready to rule him out just yet, which is a huge sign of progress.

You can, however, bank on another offensive lineman not playing this weekend, as Trai Jones has been ruled OUT for the Jacksonville State game. Other o-linemen like Cason Henry and Vershon Lee remain questionable for this weekend as well, and to varying degrees, did some things in practice today.
