One of the best players in the history of the South Carolina football program is Sterling Sharpe. #2 had his jersey retired as one of the top wide receivers and kick returners to ever play at Williams-Brice Stadium. He is a member of the South Carolina Athletics Hall of Fame and the College Football HOF, but induction into the Pro Football HOF has remained elusive for Sharpe up to this point.
