Wonder what he Stole

Wonder what on earth happened

I’ve heard him speak several times and have his book. He’s second only to Tim Bourett in knowledge about Tiger athletics

I don’t know what happened but it’s got to be a simple misunderstanding or something. No reason unless he’s sick or something. I’ve been knowing the Blackmans my whole life and I would appreciate holding any jokes or judgement until you know the truth. He’s a Clemson man through and through. Worked his butt off 30+ years 50-60 hrs a week for this athletic department. Thank you in advance.

I don’t know him and I’ve only heard him on the radio, but I’ll definitely reserve judgement until more facts come out. Very strange. I’m wondering why they’re not commenting on what was stolen. I’ve enjoyed his WCCP segments.

For the record and as I stated before, I feel like there’s more to the story. Don’t shoot the messenger. I’m one of the ones that enjoy his stories on the radio.

Really strange. Petit larceny is less than $2k. Wonder if he took home his laptop or something.

If the Ath Dept is holding his feet to the fire wanting a laptop back, or other equipment he may have used on a daily basis, then that's some petty crap.

I went to Clemson with Sammy...


Aug 11, 2018, 6:13 AM [ in reply to Re: Is this the same Sam Blackman heard on WCCP? ]

He was a kind and fun guy. I’m sure this will be resolved quickly. If there is any substance to the story, it says petit larceny, he should be allowed to go on with his well earned and deserved retirement and this put aside.

Agreed. Fully support Sammy. He is the very last person I would ever suspect of harming a school he loves so dearly.

Judging by the mug, Mr. Blackman is not a soul worried in the least. Almost gives a sly grin reminding me of a good ol boy who just took a little memento here and there he wanted because why not?*shrugs*

stunned by this.never would have thought this would happen with a guy who lived and breathed the school

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-74tiger.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Wow. I was in college with him. Hope it’s no big deal.


Aug 10, 2018, 11:12 PM

Had many classes with him. Lost touch after college. Always thought he might take Bourret’s job but he retired at the same time. Thought that was odd.

Could the retiring now be the same reason teachers are retiring due to state quidelines.

I don't know if any of you have read about the former Columbia police chief that was arrested for. It should have never gotten to that point. Seems appropriate here that if this was petit larceny that someone should have told him to return the item(s) prior to involving authorities. Seems like it should have never gotten to this. I hate to say this, and I love Clemson dearly, but if you want to see how much they love you, quit giving them money!
