**Kendal Briles Linked to South Carolina’s Offensive Coordinator Job Search**
Kendal Briles has emerged as a top candidate in the University of South Carolina’s search for a new offensive coordinator. As of this week, multiple sources have confirmed the Gamecocks are heavily considering Briles to fill the open position. This update has sparked strong interest from fans and sports analysts across the country.
South Carolina is looking to replace Dowell Loggains, who was recently let go. The team’s leadership is focusing on finding someone who can bring energy and a strong offensive system to the team. In recent days, university officials have reportedly held early talks with Briles or his representatives.
Briles is currently serving as the offensive coordinator at Texas Christian University (TCU). He joined TCU in 2023 and has experience coaching high-powered offenses at several universities, including Arkansas, Florida Atlantic, and Baylor.
Interest in Briles makes sense given his past success. During his time at Arkansas, his offensive scheme earned praise, particularly in 2021 when the team posted impressive numbers. South Carolina fans are now watching closely to see whether the school can secure a deal with Briles.
There are also challenges to be considered. Briles has a controversial past due to his connection to the Baylor football scandal when his father, Art Briles, was head coach. Although Kendal was not directly involved, critics say his involvement at Baylor still raises concerns. Nonetheless, Briles has continued to work at Power Five schools, demonstrating his ability to move forward in the coaching world.
As of now, no official hire has taken place. The University of South Carolina has not made a public statement on the matter. However, insiders suggest a decision could come soon, possibly before bowl season ends. Briles has not commented either, but conversations appear to be ongoing behind the scenes.
Coaching moves this time of year gain major attention, especially in the SEC conference. If Kendal Briles does make the move, it could make a big impact on South Carolina’s football program next season.
