Stone Mountain LB Robert Nelson leaning toward South Carolina

Stone Mountain linebacker Robert Nelson hopes to attend the South Carolina game against LSU on Saturday.

“My top choice right now is South Carolina,” he said. “When I went to the ‘Gamecocks Showcase’ [prospect camp last summer], I fell in love with the coaching staff and the atmosphere.”

Will Nelson commit to the Gamecocks this weekend? “I am holding off committing [to any school] just so I can weigh all my options and see who else offers.’

The 6-foot, 209-pound Nelson has nearly 30 offers on the table, including Tennessee, Auburn, South Carolina and West Virginia.

“If I can’t make it to the South Carolina-LSU game, I will go to the next home game,” he said. “I kind of have an open invitation.”

Nelson said Auburn is currently second on his list.
