Malik Blocton Includes South Carolina In Top 10 List
The line of scrimmage has been a constant point of emphasis in the recruiting strategy for the Gamecocks' coaching staff. The offensive line has seen significant improvement through just a few commitments, and the defensive line isn't far behind. Though the Gamecocks have yet to secure a defensive line commitment in the class of 2024 or 2025, the team has made tremendous strides toward bringing top talents, such as Dylan Stewart, to Columbia.
South Carolina has also made strides with 2024 defensive lineman Malik Blocton, who released his top ten schools earlier this week. South Carolina, which has emphasized recruiting the 'trenches,' made the Alabama native's top ten list.
Ranking as the 40th-best defense line recruit in the country according to On3's industry ranking, Blocton has garnered attention from top programs across the country, as his top ten includes prominent SEC schools like Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, Auburn, and Florida. The 6-3 lineman also is considering Georgia Tech, Oregon, Texas, and Clemson, all of which were included in his top ten list.
