McCollum Leaves Gamecocks Program
posted 2:31 pm Thu January 24, 2008 - Columbia, SC
Freshman quarterback Reid McCollum has left South Carolina after enrolling in class earlier this month. Athletic department spokesman Steve Fink says McCollum will return in the summer with the rest of the freshman class.
McCollum helped Summerville High reach the state championship game.
McCollum played this fall despite going through several tragedies.
In June, Summerville assistant coach Louis Mulkey was one of nine Charleston firefighters killed in a furniture store fire. Then in October, McCollum's close friend Cassidy Pendley was among seven college students who died in a beach house fire in North Carolina.
