While the Gamecocks are in the middle of the 2023 season, Shane Beamer and his staff continue to communicate with multiple high-level prospects. Four-star athlete Kamron Mikell is one of them, and it appears South Carolina is still on the Georgia native's mind, as he dropped his top-six schools on Monday, which included the Gamecocks, Tennessee, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, and Texas A&M.

He is coming off of an official visit to Colorado and is planning on taking a visit to see the Gamecocks play Mississippi State this weekend.

This will be his first time back on campus since his official visit to South Carolina in June. Although he has not been back since June, the Gamecocks have still been one of the top competitors in this recruitment, with many believing that the Gamecocks and Colorado are now among the top schools for the elite athlete. Getting an elite prospect like Kam back on campus for a sold-out game at Williams-Brice Stadium is a nice win for the staff.

The Gamecocks are currently recruiting Kam as a cornerback. Unlike schools like Tennessee, who have moved on to recruiting him as a receiver, this is something that could play a role in his recruitment, depending on what side of the ball Mikell wants to play. Kam is one of the few high school prospects left for the Gamecocks, but a significant one that would go nicely with the 2024 class the Gamecocks have at the moment, which features two five-star commits.
