A 16-point win rarely feels this close—South Carolina’s victory over The Citadel left Coach Lamont Paris far from satisfied. He called out the team’s lack of readiness and energy, crediting The Citadel’s grit and discipline. Paris didn’t sugarcoat it: despite the scoreboard, the Gamecocks have a lot to prove, especially with a big rivalry game against Clemson up next. Meechie Johnson’s 1,000-point milestone was a bright spot, but the message is clear: talent alone won’t cut it. How do you think the team can find that next gear before facing tougher opponents? #Sports #Gamecocks #CollegeBasketball
