Head coach Shane Beamer wanted to bring in a recruiting class that increased the competition level and improved the roster’s overall talent. For 2022, the NCAA granted up to 7 additional scholarships to the standard 25 allotment, as long as 7 or more players transferred out during the year. Two scholarships in the 2022 class were used on Karon Prunty and Zeb Noland, leaving South Carolina with 30 scholarships to offer instead of the full 32. Some numbers on the 2022 class are listed below:
29 recruits total:
- 22 high school recruits
- Note: 1 blueshirt that counts toward 2023
- 7 Transfers
Rivals Team Ranking = 24th Overall
- Note: Rivals does not currently calculate incoming transfers in their team rankings.
