Pastides really rubbed a lot of South Carolinians the wrong way by prioritizing out of state students, particularly those from the Northeast. They have no deep ties or connections to the university, they don’t care for athletics and they don’t really stay connected to the university once they leave but he didn’t care because he wanted those out of state tuition dollars and he wanted the out of state praise and recognition.


sorry as a student 2010-2015, and one from SC, we loved Pastides. The guy just cared about the university as a whole. Also out of state students were upset that he prioritized in state students by keeping standards and tuition lower to maintain commitment to being the flagship university. Him and Eric Hyman were great for the athletic department and its probably the reason we were at our best all around in the 2012 time period.

Tanner has obviously struggled as AD, but I don't blame Pastides at all.
