This story is finally getting some national attention. My guess is that more information is going to come to light and he is doing damage control. How can you accidentally give your athletes an illegal banned drug. If the university did this... wow.

I hate to say it, because I hate them as much as anyone, but I think they are in that “untouchable” place right now. The media loves Dabo, they are winning, and the love affair is going to get worse now that Herbstreit’s boys are going there. They also do a great job of playing cover up. I would love it but be very shocked if anything monumental came of this.

You're probably right. The media will make Dabo out to be a good christian man that is being up front and concerned about the well being of his flock.

One of my Clemson buddies texted me last night and said it was a good move for Dabo to go to bat for his guys, taking the blame off of them. Said it was good for recruiting.

He was posting in the Dabo / Clemson thread on tRant.

Obvious. The closest they will ever be to being a part of the SEC.

People don't take the time to research a story anymore. Most people base their opinions off of snippets of news. The longer dabo, clempson and peds stay in the news the more people will start associating dabo and steroids.

Hes the worst. Huge Clemson fan, anyone that has "81" as their number is automatically suspect for me (their first national championship).

I would bet anything that 75% of Clemson fans have 81 as the last two numbers of their passwords.

I can't believe I missed that!

I kept thinking he is a Tater so posting his 81 IQ score was a way of being possibly the smartest Tater out there. King Rat and all (King, but still a rat) and wanting to brag about it.

I actually don't know how I feel about this. Is Dabo lying? Yeah. I don't doubt it. Maybe they unwittingly gave them an illegal substance, but they knowingly gave them something sketchy. I also don't feel it's as nefarious as it's being made out by some Gamecocks. It feels like they were trying to operate in the grey areas and stepped a little over. I'd rather do that than be squeaky clean and keep falling behind. Maybe there'll be a smoking gun, but I seriously doubt it.

My opinion, there are tons of reasons to hate Dabo and Clemson. His little rant. The abuse of Christianity for football recruiting. The entitlement. Playing hurt athletes. Buying his way into a top team. This ostarine thing is low on the list of way he's as douche.

I’ll just say.
Up here everyone loved Dabo.
Outside of SC fans. No one thinks he’s a bad guy and everyone loves they they took down Saban.
Eventually they’ll win a few more titles and people will start hating them.

It is what it is, but we have to obviously start doing better

No it’s not “a bunch of northerners”
It’s people that aren’t South Carolina fans.
And espn is to blame

ESPN and the media love Dabo. Good lord, Marty Smith is obsessed with him, so I could definitely see it.

Only way that you get people to actually start hating them is they become Bama.
Or the Patriots or Duke etc
Remember these teams were once “loved” by everyone too

I’d rather the media love them then, and they start to suck.

Alabama has been hated since they won the Rose Bowl the first time then went on to 4-1-1 before the Rose Bowl stopped letting them play after beating Southern California in 1946 43-14. Bad enough for a southern team to win but a Deep South team like Alabama was fuel to the fire. Even tho they have not played since 46' their 4 wins still eclipse the following B1G and PAC schools

23.08% || 5+ wins = (6) Southern Cal, Michigan, Ohio State, Stanford, Washington, and UCLA
03.85% || 4 wins = (1) Michigan State (Alabama from 1926 to 1946 ==> 21 years)
11.54% || 3 wins = (3) Wisconsin, Oregon, and Illinois
07.69% || 2 wins = (2) California and Iowa
26.92% || 1 win = (7) WA St, Penn St, OR St, AZ St, Minnesota, Northwestern, and Purdue
26.92% || 0 wins = (7) Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Nebraska, Indiana, Maryland, and Rutgers

Roughly 3/4 of the current B1G and PAC have fewer wins than Alabama






Kentucky has been hated since being the second NCAA team with 2 and the first to win two from the SEC. Kentucky had its second before Indiana had theirs. Kentucky had their 3rd before Oklahoma State (Henry Iba) had another. Kentucky had their first a decade before UNC and their 3rd before Kansas had their first. This did not sit well with the rest of the country especially as they were an SEC school.
