Blake Franks

[ecu1984]

Recruited hard by Climp5in, lives in Greenville and up until a few months ago was all Climp5in.
He just became a Gamecock
Is that now 4 out of 4 or 5 of 5 of the top in-state recruits that Beamer landed?
2 is coming

That’s because Casey Poe took his spot. 4 star Va 3 star. Casey poe is a silent commit. Per at least 1 insider recruiting source.

Before you jump on me I follow 247 not rivals. Blake is a 3 star on 247 and a 4 star on rivals.

Blake Franks Commits To South Carolina
2024 offensive lineman Blake Franks has committed to South Carolina's Football program over Clemson, Alabama, Auburn, Florida, and others.
The 6'5" guard from Greenville, SC, once considered a very heavy Clemson lean, is now a Gamecock after a very long recruitment that took a lot of effort by Shane Beamer and his staff.

Franks plays tackle at his high school and was recruited to play tackle by every school that offered him except South Carolina, who was already after the No. 1 tackle in the nation, Kam Pringle, who has since committed to South Carolina, and the No. 2 tackle in the nation, Josiah Thompson is considered a heavy lean to South Carolina.

No matter the amount of stars. You keep stacking those big guys up front and some shit can get real, quick down in Columbia. Most will argue Clemsons title teams were products of generational QBs, but they had some stud O and D lineman on those teams as well.

This guy knows what's up
Beamer has definitely increased the beef and talent level on both lines.
One of if not the best O-line class ever (SI says maybe the best linemen commits in the nation) about to start and looks like he has the pipeline full also.
He knows what is needed to compete in the SEC against the UGA and Bama of the world and SC isnt there yet but

apparently all it takes to win the ACC

he joins Kam Pringle, the #1 offensive tackle in the nation and four-star receiver Mazeo Bennett. The Gamecocks also hold 247Sports Crystal Ball predictions for four-star offensive tackle Josiah Thompson and four-star safety Kelvin Hunter.

Prior to Franks' commitment, South Carolina held the No. 11 class in the 2024 cycle. With Franks in the class, the Gamecocks now sit at No. 8 in the country.
