This is not a Clemson issue, and I'll be darned if

a guy that worked for Maryland has room to get on his high horse. Maryland flipped the proverbial middle finger to is students, fans and a hundred years of tradition for a quick payout. They are the epitome of money-grabbers.
Having said that, I hate this arms race stuff. There is too much money in college athletics. And then too many people with too much money involved have too much say in what happens (wealthy donors, ESPN, sponsors, Nike, Under Armor, etc). It should have never gotten to this. It is horribly corrupting to the spirit of college athletics and creates a disconnect between fans and programs. I've stopped donating to IPTAY because I need that money a lot more than the athletic department needs a 9-hole miniature golf course exclusively for 100 students on campus.

his reason. Our facility is about keeping our kids out of trouble by providing a venue for good clean recreation. What are we supposed to do with our underage players, let them hang out at TT?
It's not as if tax money is involved. Well, unless you're counting all the tax dollars generated when Clemson has top quality on the field.

It appears most of these people including the author at the Post don't research their articles or as most liberal rags just throw misinformation out there to see who bites. Wonder if this is sour grapes still from Maryland. They certainly aren't doing without funds with their UA booster. Alumni, IPTAY, philanthropist, corporate sponsors, etc all donate to Clemson athletics. Not to mention Clemson football itself has paid for many projects and buildings on campus over the years with no cost to non athletic students or tax payers.
