Naw, it sounds like someone made a bigger deal and SC State wants a piece of that pie... $240K isn't enough especially if you've got media coverage on a major network and your star players are gonna be out...

If you have EVER been to a HBCU-football game, it isn't about the game, it's about all the other activities that go on around the game. Namely, the band at the Halftime Show. I dunno how SC State's band is ('cuz I am a firm believer in the FAMU's Marching 100 ) but that is a BIG DEAL in "Black College Football".

So it sounds like, even though crap got "invoked", that SC State probably was getting cut out of the "money deal" when they were probably providing a bulk of the entertainment...

All of this the public is not privvy to because most folks are not in the realm of thinking. If one never tries to understand folks, how will he or she realize what the true message is being said? It is just not in their purview...

And yeah, USC probably kick that azz of SC State...

But it's funny, 'cuz when I see USC, I'm thinking University of Southern California... So much for the PAC-10...

Although my husband is a 'Canes fan and is ALL about the ACC...
