Sitting at a table in a ballroom in Indianapolis at the NFL Combine, where he was trying to make his NFL dream come, Rashad Fenton talked about the two South Carolina players who will play his position for the Gamecocks this year, two players who will be sitting where he is in three years. Maybe in two.
“Those two guys are phenomenal,” said Fenton, who started 30 games at cornerback for the Gamecocks from 2016-2018. “Both of them have great size that I wish had.”
Fenton measured 5-foot-11, 193 pounds at the combine. It was the exact same size as former Georgia cornerback Deandre Baker, who at that moment was standing at a podium about 10 feet to Fenton’s left.
