Did Dabo tug on the loose string?

You could find hundreds of cases exactly like that at every college program. Look at Raiola suddenly flipping from UGA to Nebraska. I'm sure it was entirely coincidental that Raiola's uncle was named OL coach at Nebraska right before he flipped.

I agree. Using influence and even offering positions is not new nor necessarily unfair.

One dynamic as fans is that rumors and speculations become fact very quickly when our rivals are involved. I’m like @18IsTheMan when it comes to some accusations . . . show me the proof! But a part of me wants to believe the rumors!

I used to, still do to a degree, chuckle whenever a recruit chose another school over us and fans immediately claimed "____________ paid him to come". Those same people never considered that when we got a recruit other teams wanted, they were saying the same thing about us. Now, the outrage over being outbid for a player has lost some of its power.

In my experience, Gamecock fans have never had a shortage of excuses for why we lose. Other teams buy players, other teams cheat, refs hate us, etc...

As @18IsTheMan, @Lurker123, @Harvard Gamecock and others have said, there is a difference between being a fan and supporting a logical solution to an overarching problem.

Some are less disposed to overlook the messenger than others. I get that and take their rant on the matter with a grain of salt. It’s what makes reading a message board enjoyable at times.

So, when @Forkcock becomes exasperated, I try to understand his/her stance. But I do smile a little inside and kind of agree because, after all, I’m a Gamecock fan!

I question anybody on a Gamecock board that gushes over Dabo Swinney.

Ole Miss fans are funny. Losing their minds on X that they are the ones taking heat for tampering when everyone else is doing it and they are just operating within the system that's been created.

News flash to Ole Miss fans: your coach was the only one stupid enough to personally text a player who was enrolled at another school and not in the portal.

He's right about the current state of college football.

Question away.
