Has the other defensive lineman (Bressee?) announced a decision?

DT Bryan Bresee practiced and plans to play in the bowl game. DE K.J. Henry, DE Justin Mascoll and DT Tyler Davis also practiced and are planning to play.

Has the other defensive lineman (Bressee?) announced a decision?

Bresee has not said anything as far as I know. He, Mascoll, and K.J. He ey are all playing as far as I know.

Update: Trenton Simpson has a similar ankle injury to Tillman's, but won't require surgery, per Dabo. He declared for the today but wouldn't have been able to go in the bowl either way.

Clemson has a pretty good backup D lineman,, Ruke Ohorohoro (sp) who has also played a little as a backup linebacker. That dude has a motor that won't quit.

I don’t really consider Tillman an opt out, he hasn’t been truly available since injury so it’s not like we are missing him.
