He's perhaps the fastest man to ever suit up for the Garnet & Black, and if you don't believe it, just ask any SEC defensive back from 2011-2014. Damiere Byrd was an absolute blur on a football field, but this week he's slowing down to talk about his playing days, his wild official visit, and his development into a 9-year NFL wide receiver.

Right in the middle of a long line of underrated tight ends from South Carolina, Busta Anderson left his mark on the Gamecocks program. Overlapping with Garcia for one year (okay, half a year), the former teammates chat about the first night they met, the success of those Spurrier teams, and why USC is a sneaky pick for "Tight End U."

He might've only been in Columbia for one season, but Nate Adkins left his mark in a big way. As every South Carolina fan knows, if you make plays in the Palmetto Bowl, you're etched in Gamecock history. Catch up with the 2022 "Clemson killer" and current Denver Bronco on this week's tailgate.

One of the best to ever do it! He's a Hall of Famer, All-Pro, SEC Legend, and the list goes on. John Abraham will be remembered forever by the numbers he put up on the field, but that's only half the story. Get to know the man opposing quarterbacks feared for two decades, right here on the tailgate.

5 star recruit. All-SEC defensive back. NFL draft pick. Chris Culliver came into every locker room with high expectations, and made sure to leave his mark on the game. Now he sits down with his former teammates to reminisce on the journey, both on and off the field.

Jack of all trades. The ultimate teammate. A Gamecock through and through. Dakereon Joyner made the most of his six years in the Garnet & Black, and will be remembered in Columbia for years to come. DK sits down with Stephen and Pat to look back through it all.

Y'all wanted stories, right? We put Stephen Garcia and G.A. Mangus on a patio together and hit record. The former QB and his coach had plenty of memories to share, 15 years later.

It's Bama week, so of course we had to throw it back to 2010! What better way to relive the takedown of the Tide than hearing a new perspective of that memorable day in Columbia? A.J. McCarron is one of the most decorated college quarterbacks of all time, but before all the accolades, he was a part of the biggest win in Willy-B's history.

She might be the queen of the SEC Network now, but she's a Gamecock first and foremost! From USC's J-School to the sidelines of the biggest venues in sports, Alyssa Lang has become a star in the broadcasting world. Amidst the madness of her fall schedule, she found time to join the tailgate to discuss her wild journey to the big stage.

The man that makes the whole operation run! Steve Fink has been with the University of South Carolina Athletics Department for over two decades, and has just about seen it all. And although he may or may not still have nightmares about Stephen Garcia's time at Carolina, the Gamecock Football SID was nice enough to join the guys for a tailgate anyway!
