One of the top players in South Carolina is catching more eyes with his play this season, as 2026 6’5 Korie Corbett has been playing at a high level. Ridge View has been making plenty of national news with their play, having a special season to remember. Corbett has been playing at a high level over the last year, helping lead Ridge View, along with developing more about his game. It is what led to our evaluation below and an article we wrote back in August (Click Here).

South Carolina Top 80 Evaluation:

“Moving onto a player who possesses an incredibly appeal array of tools, Korie Corbett. He’s a tough, athletic, versatile wing prospect with a lot of ability and clear long-term upside. Corbett showed the ability to score from all levels, create for himself and others, and apply constant pressure in transition. He’s arguably at his best when getting downhill and attacking the basket, but also knocks down jumpers at a quality percentage along the perimeter. Corbett is able to physically overwhelm opponents on both ends of the floor. He forces turnovers and pushes the break well in transition. Coach Layman on Corbett: ‘Korie possesses good size and pretty good skill. Showed the ability to hit a variety of shots from three-point range but can work on his overall shot selection. Korie has some useful moves with his back to the basket. Needs to play harder in order to maximize his presence on the court.’ Corbett continues to highlight a lot of appealing qualities and will be a prospect to watch closely for Ridge View over the coming years.”

Corbett recently announced that he received a big offer as of late, earning his first SEC offer from Ole Miss. We spoke to him shortly after his announcement to get his take on the offer and if he has plans on learning more about the program.
