Starting defensive end Clifton Geathers has been cleared medically by the South Carolina medical staff, but he will not play in tomorrow night's season opener against North Carolina State as he serves a 1- game suspension.
The broken orbital bone in Geathers' face was deemed healed to the point where he could return to the field of play. However, the reason for the broken face, a fight with a nightclub bouncer and a struggle with police officers that led to an arrest and 3 charges is why Geathers will not play tomorrow night.
The good news for the Gamecocks, though, is that serving the suspension against the Wolfpack will allow the starter to play in the SEC East opener against Georgia the following week. The SEC Rocks!
