USC grad transfer changing positions. What it might mean for the USC secondary

At least once this offseason, South Carolina football coach Will Muschamp described grad transfer Nick Harvey as an “elite” SEC player at points in his Texas A&M career.

After starting his Gamecocks career at one spot, Harvey is getting plenty of work at a new one.

The 5-foot-10, 185-pounder was a first-team cornerback though the early portion of camp, and appeared destined to be a starter. But the last few days, he’s been getting a lot of work at safety and drew praise for his work in Monday’s scrimmage.

“The last two days, I would say three days excuse me, we’re really just wanted him to stay at the safety position and learn the position,” Muschamp said.
