This is outrageous...talk about stoking flames when there's no fire

There was an article on huffpo of all places that I just read. Imagine that. #triggered
 
so many permutations of the original story. I can't remember where I read it, but a couple of days ago there was a story published where the journalist interviewed three anonymous Clemson players. He said multiple black players chose not to go for numerous reasons, however concerns of racism and anti Trump politics did play a part of it and some of them. They also said the food was ridiculous, however if it had been five guys, they might have gone. they all said there was no ill-will for any of their teammates that went and that they are all a family. And as such, with every family, you do not agree with everything they agree on, however you love each other all the same.

in regards to the playing time, they said there were some first-year players that went because they still are trying to impress coaches. However they mentioned numerous times, there was no pressure for any athlete to go or not. The coaches made no attempts to demand that they go or hold anyting hostage towards them.

This take from that article is piss poor
 
“Good for the players who didn’t go and I can understand a kid not wanting to lose his scholarship“

What a piece of shit this guy is. There’s coaches from one end of America to the other processing kids out of programs and Dabo does nothing but graduate almost every single kid that steps foot on campus and this is the way he gets characterized by this race bating POS.

You guys looking at the short term. Libs have identified Dabo as future presidential candidate and are scared because he is a leader that unites all around him. Doesn’t see color, social or economic status and creates a community based on servant leadership and sacrifice. That is a nightmare scenario for party politics.

Got to get him now before he makes this country into one team.

“Playing teams”. I can’t take any “news” article/twitter comment seriously when the header is misspelled. Once again our players are handling the whole White House visit with more maturity than a lot of media members and even some of our fans.

In that case the Cons would be just as scared.
 
This is such nonsense.

If the players are this vocal about it, imagine Dabo the next time he's in front of a microphone.

These idiots making this stuff up are really helping Clemson. You think this team loved each other before. Let people start attacking their program and coach with lies and you'll see these guys galvanized like never before. You talk about Us vs. the world attitude. You can already see it in the players responses. Dabo should send these idiots a thank you note.
