I’ll just keep assuming

Fortunately for Clemson, rowing is a sport that no one cares about. So, when the head coach got fired unexpectedly in the middle of the season last Friday, there was virtually no hubbub. There was small announcement. The few people who heard the news assumed there was a scandal. And that was it.

A Google news search doesn’t reveal any new articles, which explain why Lueck’s contract was terminated.

And today’s release of Current Issues with Dr. Phillips, doesn’t say a single thing about rowing. I guess since the firing occurred last week, it does not qualify as a “current issue.”

Hot off the press

Clemson’s athletic dept. may be the dumbest in the land. After back to back poor showings on the field after noon kickoffs, it’s official:

The Clemson vs. South Carolina game will have a noon kick on Saturday, November 25 and will be televised either by ESPN or ESPN2.

Geeze, I don’t want to hear about the fans not liking the evening games or excuses about it being the holidays. Noon games SUCK!!! No one gets into it like an afternoon or evening game and everyone is still waking up by noon. If you want to know what the atmosphere in Death Valley will be like for that game see the Maryland game…..but worse!!
