Bergen Catholic (NJ) 6-5 QB Tanner McEvoy has committed to the Gamecocks according to MSG Varsity.com
McEvoy picked the Gamecocks over Rutgers, Michigan, UNC and Boston College. McEvoy led Bergen Catholic to the NJ Non-Public Group 4 State Championship game this past season in his first season as a starter at the quarterback position. He threw for 2,264 yards and 32 touchdowns on the season.
We here at LOHD would like to welcome McEvoy to the Gamecock Family. He is a great recruit for Coach Spurrier and seems to be a perfect fit for what USC needs in a future quarterback. With a little coaching and development, he could be All-SEC and when it happens remember the site that said it first.
Stay tuned as the other New Jersey Gamecock recruit four star defensive back Sheldon Royster will make his annoucement this evening. So the Gamecocks will have by the end of tonight recruits 29 (McEvoy) and 30 (Royster). The Class of 2011 is shaping up to be really special, just have to make the numbers work.
