COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP)—It had been a quiet offseason for Steve Spurrier and South Carolina—until this past weekend, when some of the same off-the-field troubles the Gamecocks have dealt with in past years sprang up again.


On Monday, Spurrier suspended starting defensive end Clifton Geathers following his Sunday morning arrest by Columbia police for fighting outside a nightclub. Geathers was charged with public drunkenness, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, police spokesman Brick Lewis said.


Geathers, a junior from Georgetown, is the brother of Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Robert Geathers Jr. and the nephew of former NFL standout Jumpy Geathers.


“We are disappointed in the actions of Clifton Geathers the other night,” Spurrier said in a statement. “He has been suspended indefinitely from the team until all the facts come in.”
