Gamecock QB commit up to 18th-best player in the country by one recruiting service

South Carolina 2019 quarterback commit Ryan Hilinski saw his recruiting stock take another jump on Friday.

The 6-foot-4, 222-pound passer from Southern California was rated the No. 18 player in the country in the latest national rankings from ESPN. That makes him the top pro-style passer and No. 2 player in the state of California.

He is still a four-star in those rankings, as there are only 11 five-stars.

That should bump up his 247 composite ranking, which was No. 47 before ESPN’s latest came out. He is No. 55 in the Rivals rankings.
