Former Gamecock great Phil Petty has died at the age of 43. The cause of death is unknown at this time.

Petty was at the helm when the Gamecocks engineered one the greatest turnarounds in NCAA history. Petty, the Boiling Spring, SC native, played in ten games for the one-win 1998 Gamecocks and six games for the winless 99' team. Petty took over the starting quarterback role in 2000 and guided the Gamecocks to 17-7 record over his final two seasons.

Petty led the Gamecocks to back-to-back Outback Bowl victories against Ohio State in 2001 and 2002. Petty was MVP of the 2002 Outback Bowl after throwing for 227 yards and two touchdowns in the 31-28 victory over the Buckeyes. He was a finalist for the Johnny Unitas award, given to the top quarterback in the country, during his senior season.

Kept grinding at USC until he had a really good senior QB campaign. By all accounts, a really nice guy and good role model. Sad to hear this news.

He was a solid QB. They would have done much worse without him.
