Gilber Edmond Talks the Development of Key Freshmen; How the Edge Room Will Look

It's not everyday that you see a player transfer from one university, and then transfer back the following year. This is the case however for South Carolina edge Gilber Edmond who returned this offseason to Columbia after making a stop in Tallahassee last fall.

The redshirt senior is very familiar with the Gamecocks staff after spending his first three seasons with the team before transferring. His return is an added boost to the edge room as a whole and should give fourth year defensive coordinator, Clayton White, another weapon to use.

"In Coach [Clayton] White's defense, the edge guys, are put in a lot of positions to make a lot of plays and use our athleticism," Edmond said. "Whenever you have a bunch of guys that have the athleticism that we do, it makes for a perfect match."

The defense has also seen a ton of talent enter the edge room since Edmond's return. Most notably, 2024 five-star Dylan Stewart has drawn raves from the coaching staff and players so far this offseason. Edmond details what he's seen so far from the star freshman.
