The appeals process in the case of two Clemson football players accused of failing an NCAA drug test prior to the Cotton Bowl will be extended.
Clemson athletic director Dan Radakovich said on Friday the athletic department is getting ready to and will be granted an extension by the NCAA in the cases of tight end Braden Galloway and offensive lineman Zach Giella. The two were suspended, along with former defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, after traces of a performance enhancing drug called ostarine was found in their drug test results.
All three players denied any wrong doing and insist the drug, which is illegal, got into their system unintentionally.
