Details are light at this point and no charges have been filed, but two South Carolina football players have been accused of simple misdemeanor assault stemming from an alleged incident at a bar early Saturday morning.
The two players in question are wide receiver Deebo Samuel and linebacker Skai Moore. Samuel was South Carolina’s leading receiver in 2016, finishing the season with 783 yards on 59 receptions. Moore missed last season because of injury but led the Gamecocks in tackles the three seasons prior. Both players are expected to be crucial to the 2017 South Carolina team.
