The four-star wide receiver announced he was ready to join the Gamecocks 2025 recruiting class a few days after ending a two-month long commitment to Florida State.Before the announcement, Clark was asked to share a comment about his decision to jump on board with South Carolina."Tell the SEC and that orange team we coming."In July, Clark made a surprising announcement for the Seminoles during a ceremony at Rock Hill (S.C.) High School, but that didn't slow down <a href="https://247sports.com/coach/Shane-Beamer-5">Shane Beamer</a>'s staff, as a line of communication remained open with <a href="https://247sports.com/coach/Mike-Furrey-1855">Mike Furrey</a> and <a href="https://247sports.com/coach/Dowell-Loggains-3265">Dowell Loggains</a>. Clark visited for the Akron game two weeks ago, revealed plans on Monday for a visit this weekend, then announced a day later he was no longer committed to the Seminoles.North Carolina was another finalist back in July. N.C. State and Auburn were involved at various points in this recruitment, during the lead-up to his first commitment. Colorado and Washington offered after the decommitment.Through six games this season, Clark has caught 38 passes for 480 yards and five touchdowns. As a junior, he finished with 46 receptions for 800 yards and nine touchdowns. This past May, he finished third at the South Carolina 5A state meet in the 100-meter (10.62). On the camp circuit this spring, he clocked sub-4.4 40-yard dash times.According to 247Sports, Clark is the No. 3 overall prospect in the state of South Carolina, regardless of position. At No. 212 overall, the 6-2.5, 183-pound recruit is the highest-ranked commitment for South Carolina, regardless of position. Director of scouting Andrew Ivins shared a scouting report on Clark earlier this summer, during an interview with TheBigSpur."He's a polished route runner at this stage," Ivins said. "There are still areas where he can keep refining and what not, but he sells double moves, he attacks leverage. I think his skill set is very conducive to creating big plays. He's one of those ones where you like him on tape and he just tests off the charts, which has you feeling even better about him."Clark landed an offer from South Carolina in January, shortly after <a href="https://247sports.com/Coach/james-coley-36/">James Coley</a> was hired to coach wide receivers. <a href="https://247sports.com/Coach/mike-furrey-1855/">Mike Furrey</a> reoffered in the spring, after he was brought in as Coley's successor.With the commitment from Clark, South Carolina moved up nine spots from 29 to 21 in the 247Sports recruiting rankings for 2025. On Friday, the class added former 2026 recruit <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/jordon-gidron-46144096/">Jordon Gidron</a> (Columbia, S.C.).
