Ex-Gamecock one of two FBS players transferring to Kennesaw St.

When the 2015 season rolls around, one FCS program will have a decidedly FBS flavor to it.

According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Kennesaw State has added defensive end Mason Harris and cornerback Dante Blackmon to its roster. The former comes to the Owls from South Carolina, the latter from Appalachian State.

Harris will have one year of eligibility remaining, Blackmon two. Both players will be eligible to play immediately in 2015.

Back in mid-January, Harris joined the mass exodus of players leaving the Gamecocks this offseason, He started one game in 2014, and played in 31 the past three seasons.

Blackmon started the first three games in 2014 before losing his starting job. He started nine of the 22 games in which he played for the Mountaineers.
