Inside the Official Visit: Malik Clark’s Recap of South Carolina
Four-star wide receiver Malik Clark from Rock Hill, SC, took his official visit to South Carolina starting on Friday and ending on Sunday, June 2nd.
This was a huge visit for the Gamecocks, who once held the most momentum in Malik’s recruitment. Many believe it’s now much more open between the Gamecocks and programs like North Carolina, which currently has a prediction for Malik on other recruiting sites.
However, the Gamecocks made their message loud and clear this weekend. After talking with Clark about his visit, we delved into the details. He shared his interactions with Coach Shane Beamer and wide receivers coach Mike Furrey, who emphasized that he is their No. 1 target at the wide receiver position. Clark said, “They talked about me being a top priority and staying home to help win a championship.”
When asked what aspect of his visit stood out the most, Clark emphasized the genuine and generous nature of the people, noting the love around the program that Shane Beamer and his team emphasize. Reflecting on his first official visit, Clark remarked that South Carolina had set a high standard for any future visits.
Malik Clark then shared his next steps with us after this OV. He will take his official visit to North Carolina this upcoming weekend, followed by a visit to Tallahassee the next weekend for his official visit to Florida State, and then his final official visit the following weekend to North Carolina State.
The Gamecocks will still have their work cut out for them in the coming months, but this official visit was a significant one, setting the tone for his recruitment.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) – A ceremonial bill signing was held We Wednesday for a new law that enhances penalties for harming police animals in South Carolina.
H.3034 – also known as Fargo’s, Hyco’s, Rico’s, Coba’s, Wick’s, Mikka’s, and Bumi’s Law – was passed and ratified by state lawmakers in May.
The bill is named after seven police K-9’s lost in recent years acros South Carolina.
Gov. Henry McMaster later signed the bill into law, with it going into effect on May 15.
The law makes killing or severely injuring a police animal, such as a K-9 or horse, punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
It also states that anyone convicted of that crime must pay back the full cost of the animal – including buying a new one, training and any veterinarian bills. The law also makes it a crime to fire at a police vehicle if an animal is inside.
Police are also required by law to keep detailed records when a K-9 bites or causes injury.

South Carolina store owner found not guilty of murder in fatal shooting of Black teen
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WACH) — Chikei Rick Chow has been found not guilty by a South Carolina jury on murder charges in the shooting death of a Black 14-year-old in Columbia.
Chow was charged in the May 28, 2023, shooting death of Cyrus Carmack-Belton outside Chow’s Shell gas station on Parklane Road.
Carmack-Belton ran from the store while being chased by Chow and his son, according to prosecutors.
Authorities said the pair pursued the teen after accusing him of stealing four bottles of water from the store.
Chow shot Carmack-Belton once in the back after his son claimed the teen had a gun. He was arrested the following day.
In November 2025, a judge denied Rick Chow immunity under South Carolina’s Stand Your Ground law and also denied bond, ruling the 60-year-old store owner was a danger to the community and a flight risk.
The ruling came after prosecutors presented surveillance video and photos in court showing Carmack-Belton running from the store. Authorities said the allegation of theft was not supported by surveillance video.
Chow has served three years in prison.
The unanimous decision came Monday evening after eight hours of deliberation.
