CLEMSON, S.C. - In the aftermath of allegations by some South Carolina players that Clemson players used racial slurs before their game last week, Tigers offensive lineman Jay Guillermo offered an olive branch to the Gamecocks and coach Dabo Swinney attacked the media for its coverage of the story.
While Clemson has vehemently denied the allegations -- and some of the South Carolina players have since backed off the claims, suggesting fans were responsible for the language -- Guillermo tried to mend fences.
South Carolina defensive lineman Dante Sawyer had tweeted his outrage regarding racism at Clemson following the game, but on Sunday he tweeted that Guillermo had reached out clear the air.
