We're awfully pleased to have another tool in the arsenal. Such a large number of people continue to have seizures despite treatment. For people with difficulty to control seizures, it is important to have access to a comprehensive epilepsy center.

When he said 'Clemson,' the room erupted. It was an exciting moment.

He's been on kickoff coverage before and done a good job of it, and I've been looking for a way to get him out there. Playing defense now, he's shown that he'll stick his face in there and hit.
