Deebo Samuel is practicing patience: 'I'm just ready to get back out there'

Deebo Samuel didn’t take the court Friday night, but he didn’t want to miss out being at D.J. Swearinger’s second annual charity basketball game.

“Swearinger reached out and asked me if I minded coming to the game,” Samuel said. “So I had to show some love to them. I’m out here to support him and the other guys”

The South Carolina receiver was one of several current Gamecocks at the game, joining Bryan Edwards and and defensive coordinator Travaris Robinson in supporting the event.

If things go as expected for Samuel’s senior year, he could be the next former Gamecock star out there in the game with the likes of Swearinger and Pro Bowlers Melvin Ingram and Pharoh Cooper.
