Alabama defensive transfer commits to South Carolina

South Carolina football has another transfer to its roster.

Alabama defensive lineman Monkell Goodwine committed Sunday to Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks.

“The reward for work well done is the opportunity to do more. I’m a Gamecock!” he posted to Instagram.

Goodwine is the second defensive lineman the Gamecocks have added via the transfer portal this offseason, joining Pittsburgh’s Deandre Jules.

Goodwine appeared in five games during his three years with the Crimson Tide, including two in 2023.

The 6-foot-4, 260-pound Goodwine was a four-star prospect coming out of Rock Creek Christian Academy in Maryland. He was ranked in the top-100 according to the 247Sports Composite.

The Gamecocks had added 15 players from the transfer portal for the 2024 season.
