The Gamecock Football program landed five-star prospect Nyckoles Harbor on Wednesday when he committed to USC in a signing ceremony televised on ESPN2.

The 6-foot-5, 225-pound athlete plans to play wide receiver for the Gamecocks in addition to running track. Nyckoles has his eyes on the future Summer Olympics in Paris (2024) and Los Angeles (2028).

This will likely close out the 2023 recruiting class that pulled in a top-20 recruiting class for the seventh straight season. According to ESPN, this year’s class is currently ranked No. 16 and seventh in the SEC.
