COLOMBIA — South Carolina Football and coach Shane Beamer gained a quarterback on Monday when a Wake Forest commit reversed his decision and committed to the Gamecocks.
Cutter Woods originally announced on April 10 that he was heading to the Demon Deacons, but on Monday he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he would remain in-state.
Woods, a 6-foot-2, 200-pound quarterback, is from Anderson and plays at Westside High School. According to 247 Sports, he had interest from Coastal Carolina, Auburn, Virginia and Virginia Tech before making his decision to go to Wake Forest. Woods is ranked as the No. 40 overall quarterback in the class of 2025 and the No. 16 recruit out of South Carolina.
In 2023, he threw 42 touchdowns and completed 220 of 317 passes for 3,915 yards. Woods was named MaxPreps South Carolina Player of the Year as Westside won the Class AAAA state title.
