Breaking: Bob Caslen officially resigned as president of the University of South Carolina after the board accepted his letter of resignation. Former USC President Harris Pastides agreed to serve as the interim president of the university, according to a press release




And referring to the school as California in the same commencement address.

And for undermining Frank Martin.

And for sloppily trying to figure out how to get rid of Muschamp in 2019 and failing and costing us a recruit.

My understanding is that the chairman rejected it without bringing it to the full board.

Can you go back and unhire Beamer? Frank probably needs to go too. And Ray Tanner too. Clean house.

Do we have a single leader at this school who isn’t a complete moron?

Of all the things to plagiarize, he chooses part of a commencement speech that has over 13 million views on YouTube.

No and that's intentional. The Clemson people in the state legislature want to make sure we have morons in all the right places.

...and it was all to give a “woke” slant to his speech.. That part of the speech was essentially saying to the “California” students, .”go out there and be ‘woke.’”

Just drone on and make it short. Biden was nailed for this very thing. Why plagerize? Just reword unless you are challenged at writing skills...

All of my in laws graduated from Clemson. That half a decade of y'all beating Clemson and the HBC rubbing Dabos massive frickin honker in it was such a delight. Get it together man. Y'all have a beautiful campus and one of the most underrated fan bases in college sports. It really is a shame.

heard ol Five Points Dick re-introduced his bill to reduce the size of the USC BoT and completely clean house of all sitting members. apparently it won't be addressed until next session - per Jay Phillips on his show today.

Harpootlian convicted Holderman after his reign of playing King of USC. holds degrees from both schools/JD - Carolina Law. never been a fan of his but if he's able to actually change the current structure of the political nightmare that is our BoT for the better - I'd go along with it. obviously the State Legislature will likely balk at such a move - but it's at least something to call it out again.

his personal war on Five Points is another matter, altogether.
