South Carolina football closes out the month of June with one final official visit weekend, and while the visitor list is smaller than previous weekends, the star power is as big as ever.

In this episode of the Locked On Gamecocks Podcast, we're joined by special guest Rob Williams from Inside the Gamecocks to break down the final recruiting weekend of the summer and discuss whether Shane Beamer and his staff can finish June with a bang.

The headliner is five-star defensive back Joshua Dobson, one of the most coveted prospects in the country and arguably South Carolina's biggest remaining target in the 2027 class. But he's far from the only elite recruit making his way to Columbia.

Joining Dobson on campus will be:

• Four-star safety Davion Jones, Dobson's talented teammate
• Four-star Irmo offensive lineman Nate Carson
• Four-star EDGE rusher Marquis Evans

All four visitors are blue-chip prospects, making this one of the most talent-packed recruiting weekends South Carolina has hosted all summer.

On today's show:

• Why Joshua Dobson is such a critical target for the Gamecocks
• Can Shane Beamer pull off a massive recruiting win before the dead period?
• The latest recruiting intel from Rob Williams
• Where South Carolina stands with Davion Jones, Nate Carson, and Marquis Evans
• Which recruit is most likely to commit to the Gamecocks
• Are any of these visitors on commitment watch?
• The latest on four-star wide receiver Amare Patterson ahead of his commitment announcement
• Where South Carolina sits with four-star defensive back Kelvin Millington
• How the final official visit weekend could impact South Carolina's recruiting momentum heading into the fall

With recruiting season entering a critical stage, this weekend could shape the future of South Carolina football for years to come. Can Shane Beamer and company close strong and add another blue-chip prospect to an already impressive class?

South Carolina athletics is hosting a massive recruiting weekend, but while football has plenty of attention on its official visitors, the biggest storyline may actually be happening on the baseball side.

New South Carolina baseball coach Kevin Schnall and his staff are hosting several key transfer portal targets this weekend, highlighted by one familiar name: former Gamecock first baseman Will Craddock.

Craddock started all last season for South Carolina before entering the transfer portal following the coaching change. Now, there's a real possibility he could return to Columbia under Schnall's new regime. The Gamecocks would love to bring back one of the most experienced bats available, but they'll have to fend off serious competition from SEC rivals Georgia and Mississippi State.

In this episode of Locked On Gamecocks, we discuss:

• Why Will Craddock is the most important visitor on campus this weekend
• How Kevin Schnall has quickly rebuilt momentum in the transfer portal
• Why South Carolina desperately needs more position players
• The significance of seven of USC's ten portal additions being pitchers
• The remaining holes still left to fill on the roster
• Why bringing back Craddock would be a massive win for the new coaching staff
• Other key baseball visitors expected in Columbia this weekend
• How the Gamecocks' baseball recruiting weekend compares to the football program's huge official visit weekend
• The latest roster-building strategy under Kevin Schnall

South Carolina currently boasts one of the top transfer portal classes in college baseball, but the work is far from finished. With several important roster spots still needing to be addressed, this weekend could play a major role in determining whether the Gamecocks are ready to compete for an SEC title and return to Omaha in 2027.

Can Kevin Schnall pull off one of his biggest recruiting wins yet and bring Will Craddock back home?
