Got a coot telling me that Clemson and sc use to be the same school


Jan 16, 2015, 12:27 PM

I have never read anything remotely saying Clemson and sc was at one time the same school .

Has anyone ever seen anything that states that?

Don't listen to coots.


Jan 16, 2015, 12:30 PM

And don't believe them either.

I didn't think so but wanted to be sure I hadn't over looked a piece of history

I'd think something like that would be mentioned somewhere on the historical pages of Clemson or sc.

One year after Thomas Green Clemson's death in 1888, Governor Richardson signed the bill that accepted the gift and established the school. In 1893, Clemson Agricultural College opened its doors as an all-male military school. Clemson has always had trustees and funds separate from the University of South Carolina.

So, Clemson founded 1889 & opened doors for school in 1893..and 1st FB


Jan 16, 2015, 1:11 PM

Team started in 1896 or 97 (lost to Coots in our 1st matchup..had to be in Cola, but now lead series by 24 huge games!)...and in 1900 Johnny Heisman came to our rescue! LOL, but true.

GoTiGERS...just keep pounding that Rock & winning Men!

Not at all. Both are public, state sponsored schools, but that's it.


Likewise, MUSC is not part of the SCAR/Cack/Landshark/Whatever umbrella. It is and always was a separate state school, like us (I think they may have been a private school for a little while though).

SC State (if they're still accredited) is another land-grant public school too- nothing to do with the Cacks.




Francis Marion and Coastal Carolina used to be part of the University of South Carolina system, though I doubt that's what your pet coot was thinking about. Maybe he was thinking about how most credits will transfer readily between programs at all state schools. Nah, I doubt he was thinking that either. Probably just farting out of his mouth ;)

He was doing some farting. Claims Clemson was split from sc because Clemson didn't want to accept black students.

I've never seen anything remotely suggesting that Clemson and SC were ever the same school.

I told him he must have read that history on the fgf cause it isn't true.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He doesn't know his own history

The University of South Carolina shut down and reopened several times since 1801. One of the times it reopened shortly after the Civil War it was an agriculture school, but still located in Columbia. The University of South Carolina got it's final charter in the early 1900s.

Dude is a coot, odds are he has never even been on a college

That was the year we won the NC. You know coot logic says since they are also in the state of sc that they were us too.

So they really beat OU in post season.***
