In 2012, a misdemeanor drug charge almost certainly is not going to cost Clemson All-American Sammy Watkins any accolades on campus or any money when he decides to take his enormous, dreadlocked talents to the NFL. According to coach Dabo Swinney, though, it almost certainly is going to cost his star receiver some game time this fall. From the Charleston (S.C.) Post & Courier (emphasis added):Swinney declined to announce plans for Watkins' punishment Tuesday other than to say Watkins will likely miss some game time following the freshman's arrest last month on drug charges.[…]"Is there a chance he doesn't miss any time? Probably not," Swinney said. "I'm not going to make any decision until we get closer to playing time, and the main reason for that is Sammy has a process he has to deal with; some things he has to fulfill this summer. A lot of that is going to depend on how he responds and so far he has hit a home run in every category of how he has responded to this situation."

Serious question: can anyone on this defense cover him consistently? TBell maybe? I dunno, just spitballing here. Oh and Dabo can suck deez.
It's not punishment without he takes away playing time. Giving extra work isn't the same as taking a privilege away.
Que?
