Who didn't this see coming?

Thought all along in this crazy year they would get it. The NCAA is breaking all their own rules this year. Dont have to worry about an ooc game now.

We play by their rules, but they allow the citadel to play an extra game. It seems you get penalized for following the rules.

You do realize this is 2020, don’t you?

Rules & laws don’t exist anymore.

C’mon, Man!

So, playing a football game against our rival is a penalty?

I’m glad they got the waiver. They did what we should have done. Play a few games, keep the players and fan base involved. Get the team some game experience, pocket a million plus and get ready for the spring.

I am glad we are playing them. I think our crowd can play with anyone. Just seems like you need to do what the people in charge say from the beginning, but like it has been said, 2020....no rules. Coach hurts your feelings, get in the transfer portal before you go to bed.

We are better than the Citadel. We played our worst game of the year last year against them. We'll settle that this season.

Very happy about this. Going down to Charleston in April to watch us beat Citadel isn’t going to suck at all. We’ll likely eat some seafood, spend the night and get home in time to see the leaders tee off on the final round. Pretty nice weekend.

To me that's not the issue. The issue is that the NCAA is a bunch of pus***s. If you tell your kid not to do X and they do X (in this case, play 12 games) well, PUNISH THEM DAMIT. I guess in this era and society you can't punish anyone - even at the Citadel where they talk all "Honor and Duty and shit.." Is it Honorable to break the rules and just be given a pass??????? Hell naw. That's weak azz shizzle.

Your language. My goodness. Just get over it already. Be glad that we get to play our rival.

C’mon GF - they’re already imprisoned at that sand-flea infested swamp & and will have to spend the rest of their lives living down being bellhops, while pretending to be proud of it. Hard to punish them any further than what they’re already enduring.

Is this for real? It isn't about playing our rival.. it's that no one is held accountable for anything in this society anymore. Break the rules? Just get a waiver -it's the new age California rules / 2000s ! That don't fly at my house. You have rules for.. a .. reason. Choose to break em' you get the penalty. Well, you should.

And I thought it especially IRONIC that the "stated" school of "HONOR, DUTY AND RESPECT" - that is their stated core value (and what they wear on their football jerseys) - is not RESPECTING the rules??

Where is the HONOR in that?

Do they not have a DUTY to obey rules? At a military school? That just reeks of irony to me. And that the NCAA is crap.

Honestly,
I like the fact this game is being played...It should be...It's also the 100th meeting...As for the NCAA, they never really stick to what they say...It doesn't bother me though...I expect that from them.
