South Carolina football is focused on recruiting Jordan Seaton, a standout offensive lineman playing his senior season at IMG Academy. Though currently rated as a 4-star prospect, Seaton is gaining attention from experts who believe he could earn 5-star status due to his impressive performance. Recruiting expert Shannon Terry has praised Seaton, calling him one of the best high school linemen he’s seen in years, reinforcing Seaton’s reputation as an elite talent.
At 6’5″ and 300 pounds, Seaton plays primarily as a tackle, but his versatility allows him to transition to guard if necessary, making him a highly sought-after recruit. South Carolina, already boasting a strong 2024 offensive line class, is hoping to add Seaton to their ranks. The Gamecocks have secured commitments from 4-star players like Josiah Thompson, Kam Pringle, and Blake Franks, and landing Seaton would further solidify their offensive line as one of the best in the country.
Seaton’s recruitment remains open, and he is considering several top programs, including Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, and Notre Dame. He has scheduled an official visit to South Carolina for the fall, which could significantly influence his decision. If the Gamecocks manage to secure Seaton’s commitment, it would elevate their already elite 2024 recruiting class to an even higher level, ensuring long-term protection for future quarterbacks and running backs.
With Seaton’s potential and versatility, many believe he will have an immediate impact at the collegiate level, particularly as an edge blocker. While his recruitment is still ongoing, South Carolina is positioning itself as a strong contender, largely due to the efforts of head coach Shane Beamer and offensive line coach Lonnie Teasley, who have been instrumental in building a robust recruiting pipeline.
Seaton’s final decision could significantly shape the Gamecocks’ future, making his recruitment one of the most closely watched in the 2024 cycle.
