Clemson Tigers Notes
Jack Clark (groin) is doubtful for Clemson’s game Wednesday against South Carolina, according to Jon Blau of The Charleston Post and Courier. Unfortunately for Clark, his groin injury continues to linger. While the injured senior has not been ruled out yet, it is looking more likely that he will have to hope for a Saturday return when Clemson’s team hosts TCU.
