Coach Steve Spurrier and the USC football team landed their second commitment Sunday night from T.J. Holloman of Atlanta. Holloman visited USC this past weekend and attended the spring game. After seeing what USC has to offer, he said yes.
Holloman played quarterback as well as linebacker last season and said the Gamecocks like him as an outside linebacker. Last season, he had 48 tackles and 4 interceptions.
Holloman also had offers from Louisville, Illinois and NC State. He drew interest from Clemson, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Auburn, Vanderbilt and North Carolina.
Love this statement from Holloman on why he chose South Carolina –
“The graduation rates at South Carolina are real high,” he said. “They get players to the NFL. I really like Spurrier’s focus. His first focus is on schoolwork. They won a lot of games last year, were 6-1 at home and won the SEC East. I think they are an up and coming program and I want to be part of a good program both on and off the field.”
Holloman, 6-foot-3 220 pounds, is the second commitment for the Gamecocks’ 2012 class. He joins Kendric Salley as future Gamecocks in the Class of 2012.
Here is a video of him in action –
