Student-Athlete Advisory Committees on each campus athletic department exist to be the voice of & to represent student-athletes. Why is the Clemson SAAC silent on lost opportunities for black male athletes? Have they been silenced?





Clemson President Jim Clements (Jim Clements) oversees the elimination of educational & athletic opportunities for more than 20% of Black male athletes & then is awarded a 𝒏𝒆𝒘 contract by the Board of Trustees. How can the state of South Carolina let this go on? Marlon Kimpson, Esq.


You would think the federal government would shut off any federal funding to a university, like Clemson University, that eliminates educational opportunities for Black males. #SaveClemsonXCTF

The best holiday gift male T&F/CC athletes at Clemson Athletics & CMU Athletics could receive would be to have their educational & athletic opportunities restored by the universities that took them away.

It refreshing to see that South Carolina’s elected officials, like Marlon Kimpson, Esq., are now questioning the decision by Clemson’s President to eliminate educational & athletic opportunities for male T&F athletes, that also eliminated over 20% of Clemson’s black male athletes.



So, Clemson University can pay two football coordinators a total of $4.16 million per year, but can’t afford to have a men’s T&F/XC team. I call BS. Clemson President & AD should be barred from the college educational system. usatoday.com/story/sports/n…


.@ClemsonDRad tells Sports Illustrated: "Football allows us to have these other sports." He fails to tell Ross Dellenger that FB allows him to have his job, his exuberant salary & benefits package. Outside of his own, he doesn't appear to believe in opportunities. si.com/college/2021/0…

When you cut Clemson Track you lose legacy, unity, opportunities, and diversity. All of which the University works to pursue in their mission and vision. Only to move in the opposite direction with this decision. @ClemsonDRad Jim Clements #SaveClemsonXCTF
