Live from the latest developments in South Carolina football, I’m here to report on a major commitment to the Gamecocks program. Jackson Repp, a standout wide receiver from Christ Church Episcopal School in Greenville, has officially announced his commitment to South Carolina, likely as a preferred walk-on.
Standing 5-foot-8 and weighing 160 pounds, Repp is gaining attention for his blazing speed. With a 4.31-second 40-yard dash and a 10.7-second 100-meter sprint, he’s been turning heads across the region. His performance at the 2024 Dabo Swinney Football Camp in Clemson this summer caught the eye of Gamecocks’ head coach Shane Beamer and receivers coach Mike Furrey, which led to South Carolina offering him a spot in their program.
Though his senior season was cut short by a torn ACL, Repp never lost momentum in his recruitment. He visited the University of South Carolina officially in November 2024, where he expressed that the experience exceeded his expectations.
Breaking down the timeline of this commitment:
- Early Recognition: In July 2024, Repp was offered by South Carolina after impressing at multiple camps.
- Official Visit: In November 2024, he and his family took a visit to the Gamecocks’ campus, where the hospitality from the coaching staff stood out.
- Commitment: Just this past February 3, 2025, Repp officially declared his decision to commit to South Carolina as a preferred walk-on.
Not only is Repp known for his athletic prowess, but his academic achievements are also noteworthy. He maintains an impressive 4.33 GPA, showcasing his discipline both on and off the field.
As a dynamic player with a strong combination of speed and academic dedication, Jackson Repp is set to make an exciting impact on the Gamecocks roster.

South Carolina Extends Offer to In-State Wide Receiver Star
South Carolina football arguably secured its best-ever wide receiver recruiting class in the 2025 cycle. The Gamecocks are bringing in six skilled receivers, including five 4-star recruits, with four hailing from South Carolina.
Malik Clark, Jordon Gidron, Donovan Murph, and Jayden Sellers will represent their home state for the first time this fall, and all four have promising futures at USC.
It seems that wide receivers coach Mike Furrey is eyeing another strong in-state group for the 2027 class. USC has already extended offers to Ridge View wideout Khristian Jackson and Indian Land athlete Sequel Patterson (who also plays receiver). On Tuesday, a third 2027 receiver, Jaiden Kelly-Murray, announced via social media that he had received an offer from the Gamecocks.
Currently unranked, Kelly-Murray is unlikely to stay that way for long. The Summerville product had a standout sophomore season, racking up over 1200 yards receiving and delivering a notable performance in the state championship game against the elite Dutch Fork team.
His offer list is expanding, with South Carolina being one of six current Power Four offers. Additionally, MaxPreps named Kelly-Murray a Sophomore All-American.
A smaller receiver, Kelly-Murray’s strength lies in his route-running and agility. His impressive shake-and-release techniques make him a tough matchup against man coverage.
Summerville uses him in the quick game and as a rusher, both on jet sweeps and as a wildcat quarterback. He excels with his speed and vision, gaining significant yardage after the catch. Despite his size, Kelly-Murray runs with more power than expected and often makes his biggest plays across the middle.
In addition to his offensive role, Kelly-Murray also plays some free safety for Summerville, but his future is most likely at receiver.
