DB Sheldon Royster (5-11 190) of Jersey City, NJ committed Thursday night to the University of South Carolina. This is a really great catch by Spurrier as he is a excellent player that can have immediate impact in 2011.
He picked the Gamecocks over Rutgers. He’s the third highly regarded prospect from New Jersey recruited by GA Mangus to commit to the Gamecocks joining WR Damiere Byrd and QB Tanner McEvoy.
This season Royster had 20 tackles on defense and scored 5 touchdowns on offense. Royster gives USC 30 commitments for the 2011 class after Tanner McEvoy gave his verbal earlier today and two others the other day.
