This Won't Help Recruiting


Dec 8, 2014, 7:32 PM

"Black students have voiced longstanding concerns about racial sensitivity.

Among more than 100 students at last week's forum, fewer than five were white. Patrice Warren, a biochemistry major from Columbia, attended the forum and saw the photos from Saturday's party.

"You hear about Clemson being the most racist in the state," she said last week. "But it's different when you come here and actively live it."

You posting this definitely won't help recruiting. This is being blown way out of proportion. Probably wasn't a great idea by the fraternity but I didn't even find it that racist. It said nothing about people wearing black face or insulting black people, they just had a gang themed party. Next thing you know the news is going to do a story calling me racist for wearing a black shirt. Some people are just too #### sensitive. My favorite comedian is Eddie Griffin and he makes a living cracking jokes at white peoples expense and as a white person I think he is effin hilarious. I live in Columbia and I can promise you there are plenty of racists people here with white and black skin. Racism exists everywhere but this is a really weak/poor example of it. Stick to stories about white cops killing unarmed black people if you want to do a story on racism.

> Stick to stories about white cops killing unarmed black

Those stories actually do play a part in all of this...along with yikyak and other negative social media, the frat party pics/calling it "cripmas" (and tying negative stereotypes to that title) just elevated things to where they are now. This is not at all just about some off-campus frat party and yes, current athletes and recruits are paying attention to it all (they're also noticing professional athletes who are protesting those national stories).

All of this is not just about the party, there were/are other issues going on..but then the pics were posted online and in conjunction with the other issues, things just elevated to where they are now.

Players on the team know what's been going on lately. Recruits know too. There is this app called "YIK YAK" and a fellow anonymous Clemson student said on there "Only thing (N-word) are good for at Clemson is making the football team better" What he said has gotten back to DW and the rest of the team so yes I do agree it's shedding bad light on Clemson right now.

When losers get their first taste of mild national respect, followed up by a 6-6 season, after starting out as a natty champ contenders... these types of unfounded, slanderous posts, in an attempt to affect the future of their rival team (whose historically made them their ##### - including this year).

this is pure hogwash


Dec 8, 2014, 11:33 PM

There is no more racism at clemson than anywhere else . As a matter of fact Id argue that racism against whites from blacks is not addressed near enough if you want to split hairs . I am not a racist person, I don't care what freaking color you are, it isn't about race Everytime. People use it as a crutch and try and take advantage of folks they know go far beyond fair to see that they r not racist. They use it as a weapon .

My honest opinion is this, act like u got some sense and you'll be fine . Act like an idiot or thug or redneck trash and you are gonna get labeled . If a black gentleman approaches me and treats me decent, then I like him fine . If he is white and acts like a jerk, then I don't like him. Just act like u got a brain and must folks will treat u right. You act like a thug, you gonna get treated like a thug and color doesn't matter. Sinetimes people treat you bad because you are actually a moron and color has nothing to do with it.

Point blank , I've never had a black gentleman who approached me and said hi sir, hope u r having a nice day .. That I didn't like. But I've met a ton of losers both white and black who dressed and acted like total disrespectful , pants down their buttss, thugs and I didn't like anyone of them and color never was a factor .

I agree. If I was a black recruit looking to spend four years at a university, especially in the south, Im looking at athletics, academics, and racial composition. Any shoddy history or incidents of racism and I wouldnt even look twice. Im originally from Brooklyn, NY and I can definately say there is a difference between whites in the south and whites up north. Pretty much how people up north can instantly recognize southern hospitality when up north being hospitable is going out of ones way and just short of taboo. Down south alot claim not to be racist but are certainly indifferent to the lives of black people. In hs at dutch fork black jokes were the norm. I Also went to irmo and the atmosphere was way more integrated.
