Daniels, a freshman fullback, had emergency surgery to relieve pressure on his skull Tuesday night, according to the Post and Courier. He collapsed near the end of practice, according to the university.
The Citadel’s initial statement said Daniels was in “stable” condition. An MUSC official said Wednesday that he’s in critical condition.
“DaSean is an outstanding young man from a great family,” said Citadel coach Mike Houston. “The entire Citadel football community is praying for him and his family. He is an important part of The Citadel and our football family. We’ll support DaSean and his family during this difficult time.”
Daniels was a redshirt in 2014 and went to high school in the Atlanta-area. He's listed as a linebacker on The Citadel's roster and recently switched positions.
The Citadel is a member of the Southern Conference in FCS. The Bulldogs played Florida State last season and this year play South Carolina and Georgia Southern.
