Excuse my ignorance, I haven't been able to get on much lately and I personally don't care to follow USuC much. Did Clowney get arrested? What happened? Thanks in advance.

Fastest guy on our team. Sad that he had no more control over himself than that. Great for Dabo to set the example. Huge difference between him and spurrier. Dabo has class and doesn't put up with poor behavior, stevie has no boundaries on what he will do if a kid can play. He is such a loser! usuc deserves him!

he should have done this after the Maryland game and his lack of team spirit during the alma mater.

Wish this could have been done earlier so we could have replaced him with another Gaffney guy, Quinshad Davis.

Dude, you should apologize for that garbage you just directed toward tigrjm. Not called for at all. Do yourself and everyone that visits these boards a favor and drop that kind of behavior.

I like how coots come on here and judge how Dabo handles his players. Lets see, over a 5 year period the greatest QB ever to play at USuC was suspended what 5 times and never missed a game. He did miss a spring last year but if you've ever played football that was a gift for a up and coming senior. Only after the final straw that he was dismissed from the team and the old ball sac didn't want that to happen. It was the administration that made that call. Just go away coot, we don't want you here. I know it's hard to comprehend because you thought you may have had a friend here but that's just an figment of your imagination.

I'm no fan of clemson being a USC alum but even clemson fans have to be ashamed of the coaching staff and football program as a whole for not dismissing this punk immediately after verifying with police and witnesses that he beat that girl with a towel rod. Sure, she did her part too but that wasn't the first instance of violence against a woman by a clemson football player under Dabo Swinney's watch that went relatively unpunished. This should have been done months ago....I don't understand how clemson fans can lash back out at anyone but their own staff for the fact he lasted on the team this long. I mean, it's pretty obvious he was dismissed to make room for one of their incoming recruits, otherwise he'd probably still be on the team.

We had an open spot for a recruit BEFORE Craig was dismissed, now we have two. Would you like to see a list of the players arrest and dismissal records at usc since Lou and SOS have been there?

On the day you come trolling here and say the same thing

about some usuck players who've gotten arrested and maybe even suspended (though we all know exactly what that means at usuck), I'll agree with you. Your outrage towards the misdeeds of student-athletes would be far better served focused on the NUMEROUS incidents at your insitution rather than some infrequet occurence elsewhere.

Joe Craig did not "beat a girl". Joe Craig got in a fight with another student-athlete, and he retaliated with a towel rod only after being attacked with a razor blade. The coaching staff and university judicial system thoroughly reviewed the situation, and they completely agreed. It was fight between two equally combative students, and it was not grounds for dismissal. Joe and Marlena both were punished in accordance with there misdeeds.
There have been zero instances of "violence against women" in the Clemson program. None.
It is your program, and yours only, who repeatedly turns a blind eye to repeat offenders they need in the program, and dismisses those they don't for no reason other than to make room for new players.
