breakout freshman season

in interceptions. The Rock
Hill native saw a slip in
his interception total this
season, but made up for it
by surpassing the 100-tackle
mark in the Gamecocks’ 12
games.
“We had a different
(defensive) scheme from
last year,” Simpson said. “I
had my hand on a couple
« 4
(interceptions) this year.
They just didn’t go my
way.’
Simpson said he talked
with NFL players and
former Gamecocks Sheldon
Brown and Dunta Robinson
in making his decision and
might end up signing with
Brown’s agent.
Notes:
USC announced Monday
that backup quarterback
Antonio Heffner and reserve
tailback Albert Ashcraft

Heffner, a Memphis,
Tenn., native, will transfer
. to Tennessee State where
he will continue to play
quarterback. Ashcraft is
transferring to Western
Carolina and will abandon
