So we can't joke about our rivals now?


Sep 21, 2022, 2:17 PM

UNC QB has to apologize for making a joke about NCSU - not an obscene joke, or off-color - just a pretty standard joke. This woke stuff is getting pretty ridiculous.

Whether a joke or not it's true. Just like the state of South Carolina. Those that can't get into Clemson go to College of Charleston.

This rings true because I have a life-long friend who decided he wanted to go to college even though he has retired now. This guy truly is not the brightest bulb in the box and has real trouble now at age 64 grasping new and even some dated technology. I did not believe he could even get past the entrance exam.

Long story short, he has one semester left after this one to receive his Bachelor of Science degree from coot-u.

was he made to apologize.. or did he just feel bad and apologized? two COMPLETELY different things.

Yeah that was pretty tame I'm guessing Mack was just trying

To put the toothpaste back in the tube as far as bulletin board material.

Two questions though:

1. What was Drake Maye's SAT score? Carolina is a pretty tough school to get into would he have gotten in strictly on his academic record.

So has woke just come to mean PC for you guys? It had a pretty specific meaning to start with now on Tnet it just encompasses everything the people consider snowflakish.

I got accepted to SCAR w/o applying.


Sep 21, 2022, 2:52 PM

I got accepted into the electrical engineering program at SCAR w/o applying and, frankly, w/o knowing that such a thing existed at SCAR.

You can get into SCAR w/o applying and not everyone that applies gets into Clemson.

There, I've said and I will never apologize for it.

i have 1.5 kids in Clemson right now


Sep 21, 2022, 3:19 PM

i can say this about CoC and Scar..

we got something in the mail and email almost every single week from both schools for almost a year recruiting them. All i remember getting from Clemson was a post card that had the application deadlines.

Thank you for mentioning that. I got a letter from SCar my sophomore year at Clemson telling me I should start thinking about my major. I never even considered applying there so it is interesting to know they stalked other Clemson people as well. Looking back, I wonder what kind of GPA I had at a school where I wasn't registered.

UNC - A written apology to NC State (who can't read it anyway) but at least that tweet qualified him for the completion of a UNC undergraduate degree.

Totally classless. I mean really, I have heard they dont have classes for a lot of their football and basketball players.

Classless? A clean joke about your athletic rival by a 19 year old? Instead of classless perhaps inexperienced would be the best term for it.

Re: So we can't joke about our rivals now?


Sep 21, 2022, 3:34 PM

I suspect there is a different standard for players and fans. Fans make jokes all the time about rival schools. I think players need to be more careful because their comments can become bulletin board material. That's my take on this. I suspect a coach asked him to apologize. That makes sense to me.

PS: I love the joke about having diplomas thrown in your car window while driving through the UofSC campus. Funny joke. But our players shouldn't be telling that joke to the media.

Ridiculous. He had to bend the knee for the woke mob. And similarly, it's well known here in SC that if you couldn't get into Clemson, you were probably headed to USuCk......that's just stating the obvious. Nobody should have to apologize for stating a fact.

Apparently QB Drake Mayo has not studied UNC’s academic history…


Sep 22, 2022, 6:43 PM

Particularly in regards to athletics, fake classes, and numerous violations of standards.
That’s probably the worst part of it…the complete lack of awareness on his part.

NCSU folks should take the opportunity to remind everyone about that….no need to seek apologies, just link a few articles from the past decade about academic corruption at UNC in response.
