South Carolina men’s basketball coach Frank Martin has tested positive for COVID-19 a second time. "This thing kicked my tail this time around," Martin said. Martin won't be with South Carolina (3-2, 1-0 SEC) when the Gamecocks face LSU (9-2, 4-1 SEC) Saturday in Baton Rouge. Last summer, the 54-year-old revealed he tested positive for the virus. (WYFF)
