The USC football team returned to the practice field Tuesday morning for the first of their 15 spring workouts. The Gamecocks are coming off an 8-5 season which included a loss to Notre Dame in the Gator Bowl. Some key parts of the team return, but the Gamecocks also lost several key contributors at practically every position except quarterback. Spencer Rattler is back for a second season, and that’s a good place for Shane Beamer and new offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains to start in putting the offense together.
