Clemson coach Pollock retires year after money laundering charges

CLEMSON, S.C. - Clemson track coach Bob Pollock announced his retirement Tuesday after a season in which he was accused of depositing money from campus track and field events into a personal account.

Pollock has led the men's track and field program for the last 20 years and will leave the Tigers after the U.S. Olympic Trials early next month.

His final year was marred when he and assistant coach Charles Foster were investigated by the State Law Enforcement Division after accusations they deposited more than $27,000 in personal accounts. Prosecutors said there was not enough evidence to bring charges.

Pollock has denied any wrongdoing.
