South Carolina Gamecocks RB Mike Davis: The unquestioned star of this unit, Davis led the SEC in rushing for much of 2013 and notched a 1,000-yard season. It feels almost wrong to say it, but he's better than even a healthy Marcus Lattimore -- Davis not only has great vision and power, he's much faster and regularly rips off explosive plays. He's already made a name for himself in the conference, but with Todd Gurley around, he does get overshadowed quite a bit, particularly on the national level.  WR Shaq Roland: Roland has had a much more tumultuous and slow-developing career than the other in-state Mr. Footballs who have played for us recently. After battling a couple suspensions and some frustratingly inconsistent play, he came on strong to close 2013 and it finally looks like he's capable of meeting expectations. If this season goes as planned, Roland will be a focal point of the offense and the closest thing we've had to an Alshon Jeffery since the latter left.  WR/KR/Wildcat QB Pharoh Cooper: Cooper's a very much under-the-radar guy who did and showed a lot for us last season. He's listed at receiver and does take snaps there, but he's also under center quite a bit and was the most effective Wildcat guy we've had since Stephon Gilmore. Since our special teams are hot garbage, he was given a chance on the returns unit and showed promise there, too. He's a lot of fun to watch and is clearly a special talent with the ball in his hands. Also, his name is Pharoh.  LB Skai Moore: As a true freshman, Moore led the team in both tackles and interceptions, making him a bright spot in a unit that struggled for a good chunk of the season. He garnered an All-SEC selection in 2013 but was left off this year's preseason teams, which rankled Spurrier quite a bit. In any case, he's not a flashy player, but he's always in the right place at the right time. (I left off Dylan Thompson off this list, but as he's the quarterback, that's pretty obvious.)

UNC's Ryan Switzer is up there as well. He tied the NCAA record with five punt return touchdowns last year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzxYXP3JxV4
