The search for the new South Carolina head coach

USC does have a tradition what are you talking about?? They have back to back NIT titles! They own the NIT!

Would be fun to hear QCB suddenly become a ā€œLutz Lunaticā€ if Bobby went to Columbia.

[QUOTE=zerogeneticsdc1;286823]Thats more what I was thinking…

The reason they think so low of our program is because they have SEC football programs. Hate to break it to them… but the whole ā€œyou dont have footballā€ thing really doesnt hurt my feelings anymore… I think I’m numb to it, and if anything they just look stupid.[/QUOTE]

clt would trade all of our bball tradition and future for sec football.

Why wouldn’t USC go after Calipari?

Seriously? It was pretty embarrassing for NC State when they went after him. I certainly had a few chuckles at the expence of UNC-R on that one. Why would USC-Columbia have more success there?

South Carolina loves a good "name" and evidently has the ability to hire them, like say Steve Spurrier

Cal was pretty close to going to state but the academic standards were too high, I know S. Carolina is a decent school but I don’t know if the standards are as high as State’s.

He’s doing just what he wants to do at Memphis, and getting paid pretty well as is though.

Cal won’t leave Memphis anytime soon and not for USC. The incredibly arrogant fans worship the ground he walks on, he’s getting paid tons of money and he gets to pad his record with 20+ wins each year against in-conference cupcakes while yet somehow earning favorable tourney bids/rankings.

No way would he go to the SEC where he’d have to actually play a tough conference schedule for the first time in several years at a football school where he’d always be on a pedestal below Spurrier (or any football coach there). Cal thinks way too much of himself to work in that environment.

I just visited GoGamecocks.com where they have posted articles by columnist Ron Morris of the Columbia State, the guy that
called us a"commuter school." Guess where the knothead went to school…UNC Charlotte. I could not believe it. I plan
to write him and let him know he might want to show his alma mater a little more respect.

Classic. What a putz.

OMG! Nice find. I plan to send him something too. These are the guys who really hurt the school. I just don’t get it. What a loser.

Holy crap!! This is unbelievable!! Hahaa!!

Not bad, $320,000 as a farewell gift from the Chickens.

His reply to me:

I’ve read that NC State, Maryland, UCLA, and others have a higher percentage of commuters than we do. Schools in larger metro areas are going to have more commuters because of the availablity of housing.

I’ve wrote to him as well. I’ve tried to be nice because I figured somebody in his position would be good to have actually care about the Niners. Interestingly he mentioned his son is choosing between Florida and Charlotte on where to attend school.

I was a freshman in 2000, and it was not a commuter school then in my opinion.

What about the ā€œspecialā€ school in Manhattan, KS. That’s where he should move the family so he can be close to his buddy dalonte. What a tool.

Yea he replied to me too. First thing he said was that he had already gotten several emails saying the same thing. That made me smile.

He said he ā€œgraduated from UNC Charlotte in 1977 (Final Four!!!)ā€. Said the thing about being on campus in the Spring and it looking like a commuter school. I don’t know what he could have seen that made him think that so I replied and asked him. Apparently my email is going to be used in the ā€œLet It Ripā€ letters to the editor on Sunday.
