HT to JR, our fearless reader....More on this story and the spin - HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE.
Oh and still no mention of "Ray Ray" Gate, which the latest on this is he is leaving for Howard....come on mainstream media...
Now the question is - What will Tommy Bowden do??? Will the media dig and analyze like they would if this was a USC issue? Or will the media issue a "pass" on this as they normally do when Clemson does wrong or sucks???? Only time will tell......

According to a Central police incident report, McDaniel’s girlfriend told officers that she and McDaniel engaged in a heated argument in which she pushed his head while lying in bed. She said McDaniel then placed a comforter over her head and began choking her while jerking her head up and down. She said McDaniel then struck her with a closed fist to her face and head area.

The victim said McDaniel continued cursing at her, threatening to break her neck. Eventually, she said he shoved her down a flight of stairs and punched her in the chest as she fled from the apartment toward her car.
