Recruitment

Considered a three star recruit, Darius’ recruitment came down to choosing between the Arkansas Razorbacks and our South Carolina Gamecocks. English eventually chose to come to Columbia and play for then head coach Steve Spurrier.

He also recorded 21 sacks in his senior season of high school en route to winning the AJC’s AAAAA Defensive Player of the Year honors in Georgia.
