Ten college football stars looking to roar back after injuries

Skai Moore, linebacker, South Carolina

The Gamecocks cannot wait for Moore to get back into the swing of things this upcoming season.

Since stepping onto campus as a true freshman in 2013, he’s been a do-it-all stud. Leading South Carolina in tackles from 2013-15, he also is an absolute ball hawk who tallied 11 interceptions, just three off the school record.

Remember, this is a linebacker we’re talking about here, folks. A 6-foot-2, 220-pound nightmare of raw speed, intensity and intelligence who also possesses elite instincts.

Unfortunately Moore missed last season with a neck injury. But if this spring was any indication, that won’t have any impact going forward. Gamecocks teammate Dante Sawyer said Moore “feels like the old 10,” per David Caraviello of the Post and Courier.

After taking a redshirt year, the senior returns with a vengeance this year, and opposing offenses better know where No. 10 is at all times.
