And these “reporters” who are calling this out will be the first guys to stick a microphone in Wilkins face while he wears a towel in the locker room.
Haven’t seen one person who attended the event say they were offended. Holly Rowe said it was a fantastic event.

"Reporters" are there to report the good and bad. I dont want sunshine pumper homers. Also, the article posted by the OP isnt a hatchet job.
Read the whole thing and basically the net of it was no one complained, was great fun, raised a lot of money, and ....well...one player channeled his inner Channing Tatum a bit much. They pretty much had to write an article since that Zack #### guy started tweeting and spinning,

The person/person's that took it to social media should never be allowed ever again to any event at Clemson bc their goal is to record what they believe to be the bad while attempting to make it worse than it was. No complaints from the guest, no foul!!!

BS - it IS a hatchet job. Go to the bottom of the article and look at the way they infused the two videos of Dabo from the ACC media event into the article just above the twitter screenshot from Zack @USC_Zack. If it wasn't a hatchet job then why include those particular videos (Dabo on culture and Dabo on faith) in an article that has nothing to do with the ACC media days. It is quite obvious The State via their article authors are implying Dabo is a hypocrite.

Reports do not report anymore. They write stories. Writing a story is much different than reporting. They write their stories with a purpose. 'Pumping sunshine" might be one purpose. Casting a disparaging view is another.

Speaking of fake news, Don't think Wilkins in long pants and no shirt should be labeled as "half naked football player". Also I question the writers description of players in only jock straps??

Really sensationalized the headline using words like "strip tease" and "half naked". They have to drive traffic somehow right?

ripped his shirt right off!!  lol
I mean, seriously though, this group of ladies in attendance raised $350,000+ for breast cancer: Specifically $100,000 donated to the Oconee Memorial Hospital to get a new diagnostic machine and $250,000 donated to Bon Secuors St. Francis to get a new mobile mammography bus to help those without insurance to be diagnosed and lives saved.
I'd say there was a news story in there that day, but C Wilkins or the others that were shirtless was not it.

That must have been the part that social media wasn't allowed to see bc what they were wear covered more than the basic jockey briefs. Assuming that korncock #### is the one that brought the womenzs clinic fun day to the twitter world inaccurately, this isn't the first time he has misrepresented Clemson in social news. Thousands of us has called for his media credentials to be forever suspended bc of his negative misrepresentation of Clemson in the past. He will freely twist the facts of what he was reporting adding his personal negativity. How long will Dabo and the Clemson administration allow korncock to come into Clemson and twist the truth for no other reason than his personal hate toward Clemson. I mean just bc Clemson is willing to pay the price to have top athletic programs at Clemson that usually beats that school in the middle of the state on regular basis, it isn't reason enough to allow their writer/media person to come into Clemson for the reason of twisting the facts/truth just to be negative against anything Clemson. Take away that lying SOB's media pass at Clemson. He has proven time after time that he will never report anything positive concerning Clemson!!!

I'm trying to remember The State's condemnation
Jul 23, 2018, 10:25 PM
|
|
when the video of usuck fans "doin' the funky chicken" in the parking lot at Williams-Brice surfaced.....or anything more than nominal criticism of their fans throwing objects at Clemson's football team and onto the field....of course, memory fades a little with age.
Consider the source. Remember, this is the same newspaper that essentially ran off their sports editor for daring to criticize Slimy Steve Spurrier.

That’s a really bad analogy.

I was there & what IS embarrassing is that anyone is trying to make this into a big deal! It WAS funny. Actually it was HILARIOUS, & it certainly appeared that all 3000 women in attendance thoroughly enjoyed it & NO HARM WAS DONE! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOJ PEOPLE?? CAN NO ONE TAKE A JOKE ANYMORE? This event raised $350,000 to end breast cancer. What a pathetic bunch of whiners!

When is the time or place? Because last I checked he was in college with his friends for an event he was supposed to have fun and have everyone else enjoy which they did. Are our rivals pointing a judgemental finger getting to you? Who cares they point at everything we do and cry, our players are having fun he had a blast and other players thought it was hilarious they were all cracking up on instagram that’s what this program is, it’s hard work when you have to work and fun when you’re allowed to let loose. It’s why we’re successful and it’s why we will continue to be.

Wilkins is a little bit of an exhibitionist.
Jul 24, 2018, 7:41 AM
|

I remember him doing the fake humpty-hump on one of our players in the end zone after a touchdown. He was also the one who got “involved” with the Ohio st players in the fiesta bowl.
I think he’s very “in touch” with that part of himself, so was not surprised to see him rocking it out at the ladies clinic. I’m sure he volunteered.
Hey, Christian, you be you. I’ve got no problem with the level it’s been taken to so far. Let’s stay right around here though if that’s ok.

the Esso.
I showed it to the guys I was hanging with and the 2 female bartenders and everyone was cracking up.
My wife said it was the funniest thing she had seen in quite a while.
She also sent pics of one of our best friends, who is battling aggressive breast cancer, beside Kathleen and 2 large checks - totaling $350,000 to aid in the battle.
What have YOU done today or this year, alum07, to try and change people’s lives for the better ? Most times it is WAY better to just keep your mouth shut. Try it.
