Emmanuel Poku brings SEC-ready size, experience, and interior toughness to South Carolina
In the 2026 season, Emmanuel Poku is an active senior transfer expected to compete for a major role on South Carolina’s offensive line, with the kind of proven, high-volume experience coaches love: 35 career games, 26 starts, and reports of zero sacks allowed in 2025. At 6-5, 320 pounds, he stands out for versatility, having played both guard and tackle, plus the reliability of a former walk-on who earned second-team All-AAC honors at East Carolina. He looks like a strong fit for a team needing plug-and-play depth and physicality.
