I always wanted to see his tomb in Red Square. Interesting the way they preserved him

No, Danny was trying to waste money and then pushed Max. It was Danny's fault and got himself outted. Sigh. Love Danny but even a great man can be wrong on this.

Max and Bobby were poor visionaries and could or would not compromise. This caused Clemson to "wander in the desert" from 1990 to 2008.
Major failure to see the "big picture." Cost Clemson potential millions over the time period.
Max stepped down to Mars Hill after a faculty vote of no confidence in him.
Worst Clemson President in the past 40 years.

Danny wanted a new football dorm. How can you say he wanted to waste money when you compare that to what they have now?

Football brings in like 300 percent more than both mens and womens basketball combined.

While getting rid of football will cut cost it also will cut revenue and force us to end our entire athletic department.

It doesn’t need football for financial support.

I'm curious how much profit does men's basketball make each year? I assume women's is a big loser of money.

How about we cut all academics. We waste way more money on those buildings.
Wait, South Carolina already tried that? No... nevermind then.

Take your TU, well earned.
As for UNC, if you are going to fake something, you need set dressing. Those buildings are cardboard cutouts and they are expensive.

You have to have a mens basketball program to be in a power 5 conference.
Baseball on the other hand, ask Syracuse...

He’s great with the Xs and Os.
Not sure if it translates into “La Crosse”.

but the doors to Littlejohn were locked for every single home game. It was a major rip off and I haven't bought a single ticket since.

Why couldn't we just cut out something no one cares about, like the English Department.
