Connor Shaw

Shaw remains the Gamecocks’ starter heading into the 2013 season, but missed the entire spring due to foot surgery. He missed two games a season ago and shared time with Dylan Thompson in a few others, so Shaw heads in to his senior season with questions. He’s the unquestioned leader of this team, and is a solid dual-threat quarterback who has 11 touchdowns in the past two seasons. He’s not the best passer in the world, but he’s more than adequate at distributing the ball. Running less doesn’t seem to be in Shaw’s style, and as long as he’s healthy, he’ll be on the field for most of USC’s snaps this year. Just know he comes with risk.
