That is so weird to me. I feel like yall were selling out games even with that big losing streak of 15-20 games.
Every game wasn’t as easy to get on TV back then, so if you ain’t good, you ain’t selling out
Now I can watch every single sun belt game on ESPN

I believe part of what has always kept us mediocre was that we showed out no matter what. Our university never really had to worry about football performance because the money would flow regardless.
After the taste of success under Spurrier, I think more Gamecock fans are starting to realize that our BOT and incompetent AD have been holding us back. Fully withdrawing all of my donations to my alma mater was something I didn't think I'd do, but between the Muschamp era, the regression of basketball and baseball, and the Caslen fiasco, I'm happy to not give them another penny or attend a university event until shite starts to turn around... if that ever happens.

Bingo. Georgia has no problem filling their stadium and their games are on TV as well. TV may have a small impact but the bottom line is the fanbase is fed up with the product being put on the field.
Another aspect that makes this time different is Clemson's rise to prominence. In 98 Clemson went 3-8, in 99 they went 6-6. In the time that our program has collapsed since 2014, Clemson has won 2 national championships and been to the playoff every damn year.
They don't have a geographical advantage and they don't have more money than Carolina. The difference is they have competent people running the athletic department.
So after 5 years of Muschamp and now seeing how terrible this team looks under Beamer, it's no wonder Williams Brice is the most empty I've ever seen it.

Why are we in the SEC if we won't act like a SEC athletics program? For fricks sake I bet the entire conference wants us kicked out. Most of them would happily trade us for Clemson and that makes me sick. We just don't give a shite so as a fan I'm there too.

What I like about Clemson is they know what their bread and butter is and they stick to it.
Our minor sport AD cares way too much about the other sports.
frick ‘em all and go all in on football

That's true. And almost everyone is struggling to fill their stadium these days.

once upon a time this program could beat Vanderbilt 48-34 and you had a coach who offered this reaction ...

in 2021 we beat Vanderbilt on a last second TD 21-20 and we hear this ...

it's past time this season for the 'rah-rah we love each other' to stop and to start putting that loving foot in asses - coaches and players alike.

Beamer is showing so far to be a Dabo-esque character without the assistants or players to back it up.
Posted on 10/18/21 at 7:42 am to SCgamecock2988
the "the final score doesn't matter" twitter post is the most cringe thing I've ever seen.
Posted on 10/18/21 at 1:40 pm to SCgamecock2988
I’d give my right hand for Dabo-esque results
Maybe we should try more cheating like them too?
