**BREAKING NEWS: 5-Star WR Chase Roberts Decommits and Flips Commitment to South Carolina Over Auburn and Alabama**
In a shocking turn of events, 5-star wide receiver Chase Roberts has decommitted from his previous pledge and officially flipped his commitment to the University of South Carolina. Roberts, one of the most highly sought-after prospects in the 2025 class, had previously been committed to another program but had kept his recruitment open for months.
The decision comes after a whirlwind of recruitment from several major programs, including Auburn and Alabama, both of whom were considered strong contenders for Roberts’ services. South Carolina, however, managed to secure his commitment, marking a significant coup for head coach Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks.
Roberts, who hails from a high school powerhouse, is widely regarded as one of the top receivers in the nation. Standing at 6’3” and possessing elite speed and hands, he brings the kind of playmaking ability that could immediately impact the college game. His decision to choose South Carolina is seen as a major victory for the program, which continues to build momentum under Beamer’s leadership.
“I’m excited to be a part of the South Carolina family,” Roberts said in a statement. “Coach Beamer and the staff have shown me what they are building here, and I believe in the direction the program is heading. It feels like the right place for me to develop and succeed at the next level.”
This commitment is a game-changer for South Carolina, as they continue to make strides in the SEC, competing with powerhouse programs like Auburn and Alabama. With Roberts now in the fold, the Gamecocks’ future at the wide receiver position looks incredibly bright, and their recruiting class for 2025 just got even stronger.
