South Carolina gets commitment from coveted defensive back recruit on signing day

South Carolina football had been after three-star Lee County High School defensive back Jammie Robinson for about 10 months.

Finally, on National Signing day, the Gamecocks, coach Will Muschamp and defensive coordinator Travaris Robinson have their man.

Robinson picked USC from a set of finalists that included Auburn, Tennessee and Kentucky. South Carolina had been considered a leader at points in the process, and after an early signing period that saw USC only ink two in the defensive backfield, the Gamecocks closed it out.

The 5-foot-11, 200-pounder is considered a corner in by some recruiting services, but could well end up a safety.
