there has to be a culprit and a victim. Some just refuse there are two parties involved, especially when biases are.

is what got hin in trouble..... I have no problem with people trashing another school..... But i swear on tnet it seems that Clemson fans want for something bad to happen to these kids, and when something happens that is all that is talked about...people here get excited when a kid messes up... I trully dont understand it.
I am just trully disappointed how adults can act.... I wish everyone would just think about it for a second.
Bash me all you want for thinking this, because I know it will happen.... but if I make a few people realize how low this is, I dont mind what yall say about me. Just leave the kids alone

for underage drinking, he actually took alcohol with him to school which is beyond stupid particularly considering his past run-ins with coaches, teammates and the police.
It's not a matter of Clemson fans wanting for something bad to happen to these kids or getting excited when it does. It's the ongoing pattern of inappropriate conduct by $CU student-athletes/recruits.
And why do you think this type of thing keeps happening to them. As we have seen time and time again, character issues are of no concern to Spurrier as long as he thinks the kid in question can help him win and $CU fans are so desperate for football success, they are more than willing to allow Spurrier to compromise the character of the student-athletes and the academic integrity of the school.
$CU fans will dismiss this as yet another case of a good kid making a bad decision, a kid being in the wrong place at the wrong time, underage drinking is no big deal because everyone does it, or the police were just targeting him becasue he signed with $CU. We've heard it all before.
The fact that this kid had known and obvious character issues (past run-ins with coaches, teammates and the police and attending four different high schools in the past four years) which resulted in both Florida and Tennessee dropping him, is completely irrelevant
That said, no one is laughing at the kids because it's not funny when kids get into trouble. The funny part is that it keeps happening to the South Carolina Shamecocks (gee I wonder why), but the funniest part is listening to their moronic fans (like Clueless09) try to justify and rationalize it.

I certainly admire anyone who has the guts to condemn 18 year old kids on message boards. Go 'head Mr. Big Nuts.

in this case it's more about shaking one's head and wondering how many chances this kid thinks he has.

You are breaking my heart. I take no joy at the young man's problem's but it does indicate how desperate you coots are to win.

There's a big difference between underage drinking and taking alcohol onto a school campus, especially if one has attended multiple high schools due to behavior issues. I don't know that the word is "funny", but it is sure interesting to watch the level of character that some coaches and schools continue to recruit and bring on campus. We'll all hear about this youngster again.
