CLEMSON – Clemson head coach Monte Lee was emphatic Friday when he said that he hasn’t been contacted about the opening at the University of South Carolina, but he was just as emphatic when he said that while he hates to see good friends lose their jobs he knows there is a different expectation for baseball in the Palmetto State.
Lee sat down with the media at Doug Kingsmore Stadium Friday afternoon, his first availability since Clemson lost in the regional to Vanderbilt a few weeks ago. Former head coach Chad Holbrook resigned as the coach at South Carolina on June 6 after the Gamecocks missed the NCAA tournament for the second time in three seasons.
