@PeePeeRaymond@CRO31@biggameJames_36 Huh? He just said he needs more gear. Two of his kids are going to Clemson, so he has new Clemson gear. Not understanding the hate, but I’d have a sense that Bobby would be proud that’s he’s being a supportive dad. I met Bobby a few times, and family always came first with him.
Dabo is a good dude. Alums are frustrated with his portal usage, but I like him. He’s great with the kids too. My daughter, rising senior, isn’t an athlete but will be spring boarding her dual major BioChemistry and Genetics into Med school (not sure where yet). She’ll miss Clemson. Hope your son and daughter love it too!
We just got the away game schedule, and for 10+ seasons, my family and I book at least one game per year (we went to Ireland in 2024), followed by 2-3 home games. I live in Charleston SC, so it's no easy trek. Well...as of now, I'm committing to NONE. I've also cut my donations down significantly. I need to know the direction things are going, most of us do! @SeminoleAlford
Yes, in real (inflation-adjusted) terms using BLS CPI data: the 2010 $34M project equals roughly **$52M** today—about 4x the current ~$13M effort. Nominally it was ~2.6x.
Gas prices: 2010 U.S. average regular was ~$2.79/gal. Adjusted to 2026 dollars (same CPI factor): **~$4.26/gal**. Current June 2026 averages are running ~$4.2–$4.4/gal, so real prices are comparable.
