For the butthurt people over the Cornell Powell situation


Mar 3, 2019, 9:47 AM

Kid is a life long unc fan. Yet he came to Clemson to play football for a great team with tradition. I have no doubt his love for Clemson and understand him supporting his childhood team. Understand that college is a business decision as well. Guess what, Xavier Thomas was life long Carolina fan as well as a lot of our players having other teams they rooted for growing up.

My point is, they came to Clemson to play for Dabo and comapny, and will leave better men amd players because of it.That doesn't have to diminish their love for their childhood team.

Step back a second, think about it, get off your high horse, and enjoy what Dabo has done for Clemson. Some of yall just want something to cry about. TD me if it makes you feel better about yourselves, but it's time for some of you to grow up. With that being said, I hope everyone has a great day. Go Tigers!

P.s. you donate to Clemson. What they do with those funds is up to them. Don't like it, don't donate.

Yes, I disagree with you. Go ahead and TD me, too; after all, I TD’ed you. Maybe you should also reconsider your TNET handle? I don’t think you have a clue as to what ‘All In’ means.

For a private school because I was offered a scholarship at the latter and would have to walk on at Clemson. However i never stopped pulling for our Tigers and imo I always will.

The basketball program is constantly fighting the reputation people only care about football. And then you have a football player wear a UNC shirt to the game and sit in the student section. You don’t think the basketball players see it on social media? They work to hard for that and deserve better. And if you think it’s ok don’t ever complain about close losses or anything from the basketball team because this kind of stuff is nothing but harmful

Mar 3, 2019, 10:20 AM

but he used Clemson student tickets to sit close to the action and fully deck himself out in the opposing teams gear. Him growing up a big UNC fan doesn't matter in this circumstance as he is now a Clemson student athlete and should not be publicly and actively rooting for the failure of Clemson in any discipline.

Never seen what this kid did before now. I guess he can’t get noticed any other way. Maybe he will get on the field if he would transfer. I do not have any respect for turds like him, or Josh Belk for that matter. The are both busts and why they came to Clemson is beyond me except to use the program for a quality education, seeing attending class is not even a requirement in Chapel Hill. Enjoy this while you can you will never make a difference on the field at Clemson. Heck you probably won’t get on the field.

If he still wants to pull for UNC, that’s his right, but not when they are playing his school. It was really poor form to show up to the game, wearing a UNC shirt, while sitting in the Clemson section.

I don’t understand how anyone here doesn’t see a problem with this.

Agree. My lord, he wears a UNC shirt and he is classless, disrespectful and / or needs to transfer? It's a shirt, for goodness sake. Consider the totality of the person before you start coming to such conclusions.

If I want to read such silliness, I'll go to
FGF... "Trevor Lawrence shoved a mouthy kid in a basketball game! He a thug!" "Three Clemson players tested positive for PEDs! Forfeit the game and get the death penalty!" "Christian Wilkins goosed an OSU player! They are a bunch of perverts!"

While I think Dabo should advise players not to wear gear for the other team, this isn't a violation of a universal moral code. It is a shirt. Keep some perspective.

To the OP - I grew up as a UofSuc fan and had no interest in CLEMSON. When I was ready to go to college, I visited the campus at UofSuc and CLEMSON. It was no contest and I have never pulled for UofSuc since the first week of Rat Season. Sorry man, but you do not get it.

As for CP, I only hope the best for him, but Dabo might not see it that way. CP made a mistake IMO, and must now face his consequences for his decision. Like I said, I hope all goes well and CP shines this year. He's a really good player that has made some mistakes, and it will continue to cost him if he makes more of them.
