The first Gilmore brother to don a South Carolina uniform ended up working out pretty well for the Gamecocks, so new coach Will Muschamp has decided to try to land another.
Steven Gilmore Jr., the younger brother of current Buffalo Bills CB Stephon Gilmore, said he had received an offer from South Carolina on Twitter on Saturday:

Steven, who just finished up his sophomore year of high school, will probably receive offers from other schools in the near future. But, with the success Stephon had with the Gamecocks (leading to him getting selected No. 10 overall in the 2012 NFL Draft), Steven might give South Carolina a chance to do the same thing for him.
In the meantime, Stephon is preparing for a season in which expectations are high. According to buffalobills.com, Gilmore, who is entering a contract year, is one of nine players projected to make their first Pro Bowl appearance.
