South Carolina got a big-time lift to its offensive line depth for the 2027 season on Sunday afternoon with a commitment from mammoth interior lineman Jaxon Elston.
The 6-foot-5, 314-pounder out of the state of Alabama told On3’s Hayes Fawcett of his decision to head to Columbia next fall. Not only did Shane Beamer‘s program pluck Elston out of a rival SEC state, the Gamecocks lured the offensive line stud out of the clutches of a rival SEC program, beating out Arkansas as well as Georgia Tech for Elston.
Elston currently stars at Oxford High School in Oxford, Ala., and his commitment on Mother’s Day was a nice surprise for South Carolina, with Elston previously scheduled to announce his collegiate decision on June 20. But the 3-star product decided to make his intentions known more than a month before that.
