Jared Curtis Names His Top Three Schools, Featuring South Carolina Gamecocks

Jared Curtis, the nation’s top-ranked quarterback, has officially named his top three favorite schools, and South Carolina made the cut.

Although early signing day is still ten months away, the competition to secure Curtis, the #1 QB in the class of 2026, is already fierce. Speaking to On3, Curtis revealed, “I really like three schools; Georgia, Oregon, and South Carolina.”

In a surprising twist, South Carolina has stayed in the mix, even after Dowel Loggins, the Gamecocks’ primary recruiter for Curtis, accepted the head coaching position at Appalachian State. Just weeks ago, Head Coach Shane Beamer and offensive coordinator Mike Shula visited Curtis in Nashville, TN, where Curtis shared that the visit was “great.”

Despite decommitting from Georgia in November 2024, the Bulldogs are still seen as the frontrunner to land the five-star quarterback. However, South Carolina has no plans of backing down in their pursuit of Curtis. The standout QB is set to take an official on-campus visit to Columbia, SC, on June 20th. That weekend will also feature several high-profile recruits, including current commit CB Peyton Dyer, OL Darius Gray, and S Tamarion Watkins. Along with South Carolina, Curtis has official visits lined up with Georgia, Oregon, Auburn, and Alabama.

While the Gamecocks are also actively recruiting other top 2026 quarterbacks like Landon Duckworth and Brady Smigiel, it’s clear that Curtis remains their number one target. Securing him would be a major boost to South Carolina’s 2026 class.

Curtis is ranked as the 24/7 Composite’s number two player in the upcoming class and is a consensus top-ten recruit across all major recruiting platforms.

Ryan Mosley, 2026 WR, Schedules Official Visit with South Carolina Gamecocks

Ryan Mosley, a 2026 wide receiver, has confirmed an official visit with the South Carolina Gamecocks.

With National Signing Day for the 2025 recruiting class approaching on February 5, attention from college football programs is shifting toward the 2026 cycle. South Carolina has made a strong push with their 2025 class, and they aim to continue that success this year. One of the top prospects for the upcoming class, Ryan Mosley, has already scheduled an official visit with the Gamecocks.

Mosley, a four-star wide receiver from the 2026 class, will visit Columbia from June 6th to 8th. Before that, he plans to visit Georgia and will travel to Texas A&M after his trip to South Carolina. Mosley is ranked as the 236th-best player in the country, the 39th-best wide receiver, and the 28th-best player in Georgia.

Texas A&M was the first SEC school to extend an offer to Mosley, followed quickly by Georgia, giving those programs a head start in his recruitment. However, South Carolina has made a strong push since joining the race, meaning these upcoming official visits will be crucial to Mosley’s decision.
