Clemson tight end Ian Schieffelin released a statement Tuesday through his attorney after a recent DUI charge was dismissed. Tigers coach Dabo Swinney said Schieffelin, who played the last four years with the Clemson basketball team, previously indicated his tight end would miss time this season as a disciplinary measure.
Schieffelin revealed he accepted a traffic ticket for reckless driving after the City of Clemson Police Department reviewed all evidence and decided against a DUI charge.
“As part of the resolution of this matter, I will not be allowed to play in the home opener against LSU. I am determined to learn from this experience and move forward with renewed focus,” Schieffelin wrote, in part.
According to the City of Clemson Police Department report, an officer conducting a routine patrol observed Schieffelin driving rapidly and swerving earlier this month over a double yellow line near the Clemson campus. Schieffelin approached the officer’s vehicle from the rear, and the officer merged into the median to allow the Clemson athlete to pass him.
