Zacch Pickens won’t be only member of his family playing for Gamecocks

T.L. Hanna star Zacch Pickens will not play at South Carolina until the 2019 season, but one of his family members will be playing for the Gamecocks this year.

Pickens’ brother, Kevin Pickens, is joining South Carolina’s football team as a walk-on defensive back. He will wear No. 32.

It has been Zacch’s dream to play alongside his brother for years, and he will finally be able to do so in 2019.

“This is all him, really,” Zacch said of his brother helping him to become the player he is today. “I didn’t want to play football, but he gave me the courage to play.
