Zacch Pickens and Cam Smith didn’t get a chance to know each other much during the recruiting process, but that will change this week as teammates in the Shrine Bowl.
The two future South Carolina Gamecocks immediately struck up a friendship when the two arrived Sunday to participate in the 82nd annual all-star contest. Pickens and Smith are No. 1 and No. 2 ranked recruits for the South Carolina squad in the game, according to the 247Sports Composite ranking that factors in all networks.
“Me and Cam act a lot alike and mess around in practice,” Pickens said.
