    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    I don't feel qualified to tell the black students who feel they are being discriminated against that their claim doesn't pass the smell test. Apparently we have many posters who do feel qualified. Let's say hypothetically, the school has 300 athletes between football, basketball, and all...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    You say it's literally nothing but conjecture and they can't prove it. At this point, they haven't filed a lawsuit in court yet, they filed a complaint with the Dept of Education and said they are considering a lawsuit. The black students believe their is a racial component to the school's...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    Simple "yes or no" questions- 1. You think the black students making the allegations are "just playing the race card" 2. You feel more qualified than the black students to identify "real racism."

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    The response here has really been eye opening and very unexpected. I assumed Canes fans would get a good chuckle out of any bad news for Clemson, yet a good portion of the responses boil down to "this is a frivolous claim and those black students are a bunch of desperate whiners who are just...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    They can make a FOIA request, and then Clemson could spend months delaying. Programs also cook their books ALL the time. https://www.bannersociety.com/2019/8/12/20704195/college-football-athletic-budgets...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    @RVACane Bro, I'm curious why this got bumped to the off topic forum where other OT topics didn't (just glancing at the first page on eye in the sky, there are at least four or five threads that have much less connection to Miami Hurricanes football). This directly involves allegations...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    It's funny how you call this an obviously frivolous lawsuit. Why? Because you disagree with it? You say this isn't a real case of racism- again, how do you know this? It's currently being investigated. I see some legitimate questions. Why this sport as opposed to others? The AD said they...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    The title is not misleading. That is what the track team says is happening. They are being "directly targeted." As for being related to Canes football - how many posts have been made saying Clemson is a racist school and that it's unbelievable that a parent would send their kids there for...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    The AD said the choice is to cut a men's sport or add a women's sport. They don't want to add a women's sport because it could be expensive and cost millions every year in perpetuity. As you know, a lot of athletic Dept money comes from the big sports revenues, especially football, which has...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    It makes the school look bad. Good enough for me. Laugh all you want, but the Office of Civil Rights at the Dept of Education is currently reviewing the complaint, and will launch a formal investigation if they find it credible (in today's political climate, I'm betting they will). Frankly...

    OT: Clemson wants fewer black students

    I agree but it makes Clemson look bad so I am going to say it's true. If they cut it, it's because they are racists, if they keep it, it will bleed their budget. Win win.
