And now he is failing…

Normally a school policy.

When his grades didn’t improve, Bellamy was asked to leave.

Bryant didn’t originally qualify for Clemson, so he went to Hargrove. He pulled straight A’s there to get into Clemson. I hope he turns his grades around, even if it means missing next football season. The diploma is far more important.

They lost by ten and were still in it with five minutes left in the game and had the lead at the half. I get it that you don’t like Clemson, but to negate a very good game by calling one team’s performance pathetic is to denigrate both teams performance. It was a good game and South Carolina came out with a decisive win but both teams are probably where they should be ranked right now and deserve respect. This may be a blowout either way but I think it will be a close game and Bryant will be missed for the depth he provides against LSU’s incredible defense.

Two wins against teams with winning records, Ball State and NC State and a pathetic showing against USC of the SEC. Clempsons bowl won’t be as bad as last years, but same results.

It shows that ACADEMICS do count as Clemson. In fact, Clemson is in the Top 10 for APR ratings (983). That is excellent and they should be commended for that. At the top of that list is Northwestern at 995; Duke 989; Boise St 989; Ohio St 988; Northern Ill 987; Rice 986; Clemson 983; Middle Tenn St. 983 and Rutgers 982. Well done Clemson.
