Here is all we know about the Clemson Football Suspension Rumor

Clemson Football || The Ladder

There is a rumor going around that three Clemson football players have been suspended from the team due to drug violations and/or academics. The rumor broke around 9 p.m. Tuesday night and has set Clemson football nation ablaze. It was first mentioned by David Hood, Senior Writer of Tigernet on the message boards there:

Ill be honest in saying that when David Hood posts something, its normally right. He decided not to name names, but speculations have come out since then and it looks as if the three players are wide receiver Deon Cain, kicker Ammon Lakip, and tight end Jay Jay McCullough. This is not the type of news you want to hear as a Clemson football fan less than 48 hours from kickoff, but we dont know if it is true or not at this point.

According to Aaron Brenner, another beat writer for Clemson football, the Tigers are declining comment tonight. We will know tomorrow morning at Dabo Swinneys press conference what the true story is and make sure you stay tuned here on Rubbing the Rock for updates on this situation.

As I said before this has not been confirmed, but with so many media outlets reporting it, something is about to happen. Should the Tigers lose Deon Cain, it would be a huge loss for the offense, but the bright side is there is plenty of depth at wide receiver and, without Ammon Lakip, Greg Huegel would take over kick off duties as he did at the beginning of the season.

**EDIT: This has now been confirmed by Aaron Brenner that Deon Cain, Jay Jay McCullough, and Ammon Lakip have been sent home after failing their drug tests.***

Hopefully this does not distract the team from its final day of preparation as they get ready to face the Oklahoma Sooners Thursday in the Orange. Check back here for more updates. We will give them to you as they come available to us.
