Gamecocks in South Carolina make a strong impetus for the country’s # 1 player in the class of 2026, Zion Eli, a five -star perspective from Baltimore, Maryland. Despite her current commitment to Maryland, Eli remains open to exploring other options, and South Carolina is positioned as a potential contender.
Eli, who had an impressive sophomore with 64 gear, 24 weights for loss and 13 sacks, is one of the most dominant protective players in high school football. Its combination of size, speed and athleticism makes it a rare talent and change the game to the next level.
South Carolina recently held a visit to the home with Elee, signaling his intention to compete seriously for his commitment. Gamecocks have a history of success, recruiting the DMV area, emphasized by Edge Dylan Stewart, which was ranked as edge # 1 in class 2024. Stewart has just ended a freshman season, winning national recognition as the top -student defender in the country.

This connection can play a significant role in South Carolina’s pursuit of Elee. Seeing Stewart thriving in the program, he can strengthen the Gamecocks terrain and appeal to the local Maryland. Elee recruitment is far from over and South Carolina employees are determined to make their case as a program where elite talents can develop and shine.
While Eli remains committed to Maryland, the recent visit to Gamecocks and the ongoing efforts show that they are serious to become a major player in recruiting. If they can build inertia, South Carolina has the potential to emerge as a strong contender for one of the best players in high school in the country.
