SUNSET – The offseason in Clemson was far from quiet, but Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney told the media Wednesday that the culture of discipline that has been a hallmark of his program is alive and well.
Swinney had to deal with the dismissal of defensive end Ebenezer Ogundeko, the suspension of kicker Ammon Lakip and the news that enigmatic left tackle Isaiah Battle’s Clemson career was over and that he would declare for the NFL’s Supplemental Draft.
For many other of the nation’s top programs that is a relatively quiet offseason, but was chaotic for Clemson fans and coaches used to quiet offseasons spent reading the police blotters associated with other programs both near and far.
