Front Page Story: Injury news dominates Wednesday practice report

Injury news dominates Wednesday practice report

The news coming out of the Clemson camp following Wednesday's practice was both good and bad as head coach Dabo Swinney discussed the career-ending injury of Patrick DeStefano. He also said a few other players would be ready to go this weekend against Boston College. Full Story »

Works out well to put Goodson back in for BC and not

have to wait any longer. I think he hasn't been on the field since UGA. This will give him the chance to get back up to playing level.

Bad memories

I played center in high school in the days when they could still smack down on the back of the center's head. Over the last 2 years of ball, I frequently would loose the use of my left arm for 5-6 minutes. Constant tremor in left arm for years later. At age 40, completely ruptured cervical disc. After fusion, No More TREMORS!
As a physical therapist, I think Patrick and his family made the right but difficult choice.

Sorry to hear that. A stinger is a pinched nerve correct?

Do you have any idea why Patrick's aren't going away like normal?

This news nearly brought a tear to my eye

I hate to hear about any promising athlete having their career ended by anything other than their own decision. Definitely sending some prayers Destefano's way...I hope he finds success in whatever he does, and I hope he can find his way back into football in some way.

sorry to hear, patrick. Will always recall ESPN showing big Pat bouncing up and down on the hill before running down the hill vs. Georgia. Pure joy and excitement, and a great memory to keep with him as he moves on from football

I am sorry to hear about Patrick. His fire will be missed. I wonder if they could be a way that he can venture on the sideline for the year? If it is something he wants to do and it can be done, I think the kid deserves it. God Bless you Patrick!!!

Agree. DeStefano will be missed on the field. It is difficult for the athlete as well as the family, but he may be able to stay involved. Our son had a similar event, as a college football player, and is now a strength and conditioning coach. They can intern as a college student....when you love the game of football, it is tough to close that chapter of life. As for Jenkins...what a beast, go tigers!
