South Carolina offensive lineman to enter transfer portal
Another South Carolina offensive lineman will be looking for a new home this offseason.
Redshirt junior interior lineman Boaz Stanley will enter the transfer portal, GamecockCentral has learned. Following previous stops at Georgia Military and Troy, Stanley spent just one season with the Gamecocks.
During that one year, Stanley saw action in all 12 games. He started nine contests, most of them at center.
2025 was a struggle for the entire USC offensive front, and Stanley marks the sixth scholarship player from the position room to reveal a plan to leave the program. Previously, Trovon Baugh, Tree Babalade, Cason Henry, Rodney Newsom, and Nick Sharpe announced their transfer intentions.
Stanley was a three-star transfer when he committed to Carolina last offseason. He was an unranked prospect out of North Oconee High School in the class of 2022 and was unranked again after spending a year at the junior college level.
