“Vann is not here right now, he won’t play this week,” Beamer told reporters on Monday.
The unfortunate news though shouldn’t come as a surprise. Vann is still recovering from a knee injury that he suffered against Clemson Nov. 26. That play, his last as a Gamecock, resulted in a 34-yard reception on a third down
