TARGET AND COMMIT NEWS AND NOTES
** There was no bigger South Carolina recruiting news than the commitment of Tiger (Ga.) Rabun County class of 2022 four-star QB Gunner Stockton last week. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound Stockton is ranked the No. 28 overall prospect in his class and the No. 2 pro-style quarterback. Stockton chose the Gamecocks over fellow finalist Georgia and is the first commitment to Carolina's 2022 class.

** It may be premature but still interesting to talk about the Gamecocks' 2022 recruiting ranking. With just Stockton on the board for that recruiting cycle, South Carolina skyrocketed to No. 11 in the country in the Rivals 2022 recruiting rankings.
** South Carolina extended an intriguing new offer to a class of 2021 prospect in Jadarrius Perkins, a three-star JUCO prospect at Gulf Coast CC in Mississippi. Perkins, who is from Hattisburg, Miss., is currently committed to Oregon. Perkins, who committed to Southern Miss in high school, has the size South Carolina covets at 6-foot-2, 190 pounds.
** Rival.com's Chad Simmons caught up with a couple of South Carolina commits in Alabama this past week in OL JonDarius Morgan and WR Sam Reynolds. Not that there was any worry to begin with, but both prospects said they're locked in with their commitments to the Gamecocks and speak with the staff all the time.
** Milledgeville (Ga.) Baldwin class of 2021 three-star DB Javon Bullard committed to Georgia in the past week and Highland Springs (Va.) four-star DL Kelvin Gilliam committed to Oklahoma. Both had the Gamecocks as finalists.
