One injury, you're out. Don't buy into the crazy evangelical church that Dabo likes (look it up), you're out. Refuse to cut Saban's grass in his requested way, you're out

Just so happens that the folks running the show down South happen the be generally one color and those providing the talent another. I find it a little weird

Pay 'em
Who pays? They already lose money (over 30 million per year) that ostensibly is taken from the academic students in one way or another.

Clemson's athletic programs cost the school $122 million against revenue of $85 million.

The male coaches make a mint.....millions.....while the average female coach is in the $200K range.
