Geez, talk about anger management. Seems you’re the one with the Anti Clemson obsession. Take a Valium.

You're on an SEC website running down South Carolina, a team you've dominated historically, when you're team is about to play Alabama in a playoff semifinal. If that isn't proof that your obsession with South Carolina goes beyond athletics, I don't know what is.

And nothing in my prior post is factually inaccurate or made up. They're just facts. Ben Tillman despised South Carolina College and The Citadel. He saw them as privileged institutions for the planter aristocracy. Thus, he created Clemson to be exactly what USC wasn't. That dislike had nothing to do with football at the time.

I don't believe I've ever met Ben Tillman. I also don't believe I'll turn snowflake and let the actions of those from over a century ago dictate my happiness. You do whatever makes you miserable, though.
