COLUMBIA, S.C. — The SEC preseason media poll wasn’t expected to be kind to Carolina and it wasn’t.
According to the voting of those media members who cover the SEC, South Carolina was picked to finish sixth in the Eastern Division.
Head coach Shane Beamer has been well aware of how his program is perceived from the outside looking in.
