The two biggest news stories about South Carolina today were top prospect Jadeveon Clowney signing with the Gamecocks and assistant coach Shane Beamer leaving Carolina for Virginia Tech to coach with his father, Frank Beamer. There was a huge volume of conversation today, particularly about Clowney's announcement, so I've included a sample of the conversation in today's round-up.
