Caleb Herring’s journey to South Carolina football didn’t start how you’d expect…

Before the offers, before the SEC, before the spotlight — he was getting beat up by his older brothers and struggling on the field.

He didn’t even start playing football until 8th grade — and by his own words, he was “terrible.”

But that adversity? It built something different. In this interview, Caleb talks about having competitive brothers helped him, why he started football late, and why he chose South Carolina.
