Low also wrote a post about Gilmore's role on the Gamecocks:
As a freshman, Stephon Gilmore was something to see.
As a sophomore, you might see even more of him.
Gilmore is raring to take on as much as the South Carolina coaches want to give him.
"Cornerback is my position. That's what I play, and that's my focus," Gilmore said. "But if I can help this team get to where we all want to go by playing some at quarterback, returning punts, wherever they need me to line up, that's what I'm going to do."
Here's his post about offensive line coach Shawn Elliott:
Shawn Elliott doesn't run away from challenges.
In fact, he runs to them.
The third offensive line coach in as many years at South Carolina, Elliott had spent his entire coaching and playing career at one place -- Appalachian State.
He loved it there. It was home. He helped the Mountaineers win three straight Division I-AA national championships from 2005-2007.
But when the South Carolina offensive line job opened after Eric Wolford left to take the Youngstown State head job, Elliott knew he had to pursue it.
He grew up in nearby Camden, S.C., and he used to attend games at Williams-Brice Stadium as a child with his father, Charles, who worked the games as a South Carolina state highway patrolman.
"This was the one job that could have pulled me away from Appalachian State," Elliott said.
