Duckworth, who originally committed to USC in August of 2023, backed off that pledge in 2024. However, in a full-circle recruiting moment, he returned to the fold this summer after overtures from some of the southeast’s top programs. He shut down his recruitment officially in November.

Why South Carolina? “I feel like this is where I belong,” Duckworth told Rivals’ Hayes Fawcett. He also shared with GamecockCentral, “Coach Beamer is a great coach, and he has always been great with me. The connection that we have goes back a long time. Coach Beamer and the people there always make me feel at home.”
