For now, South Carolina head coach Will Muschamp is not going to think about when or if star wide receiver Deebo Samuel might return this season.
“We haven’t had any conversation with him or the medical staff right now,” Muschamp said Tuesday. “It’s been a tough deal for him. Talking to him Saturday night after the game I just didn’t think there was any appropriate time to address that right now. Certainly, we’ll address that moving forward, but I just didn’t think it was an appropriate time."
Samuel had surgery Sunday to repair a broken bone in his lower left leg, and he was scheduled to be released from the hospital Monday, Muschamp said.
