Purnell Says Chemistry Not An Issue

Clemson head coach Oliver Purnell noted Monday, at a news conference recapping the season, that other than returning big man Trevor Booker, no one’s job is safe on his team.

The coach noting that the team’s struggles down the stretch were the byproduct mostly of poor defensive play.  That’s something he says has to be reversed as a signature of his teams has been its defensive play.

Purnell says he expects sophomore guard Terrence Oglesby, who appeared frustrated at times this year, to return.

Three highly regarded recruits will join the Tigers’ returning veterans.
