That's just within the actual city limits dumbass. The I-85 corridor from pretty much Spartanburg to Anderson is one big urban metro area made up of multiple cities, towns, and unincorporated areas.

You said Greenville is about 30 min away for the kids who want “city life.”

So driving up and down the I-85 corridor, stopping at a bunch of small towns is your idea of “city life,” which is why I’m laughing at you, hayseed.

I was actually down in Greenville for a few days back in November. It's not bad at all. The downtown area has some cool stuff to attract college kids. Are Clemson players really driving 40 minutes to go hang out somewhere though?

I like the Carolinas. Some really nice places. I just laugh at 70k being “city life.” I don’t even like city life, which is why I don’t live in it, but 70k is not it.

With less than a tenth of the population of Columbus, I’d agree, but I wasn’t comparing cities, I was just laughing at the idea of a town of 70k being considered “city life.”

“We’ve even got a dozen cabs! Usta be fifteen until Jethro started driving his Uber mobile.”

70k is a lot of people to have live in one area. My personal stance is if there's more than one red light in the town, it's a clusterfuck.

Aren't you close to Akron? I hear it's-a-boomin!

Yep. Kind of between Akron and Cleveland. I don’t consider Akron “city life.”
Not at all. Still loved living up there. The fiancee and I are planning a return to NE Ohio in a couple years, maybe Jackson Township area. Pretty pumped.

I got 55 on my outside , but I said year round , not everyday ., They do wear wetsuits

Still beats that concrete jungle you call city life . You would be surprised how many recruits like to Bass Fish .

Ever hear of the Bassmasters Classic .

What the fuck ever dude. I'd rather be a hayseed from South Carolina than anything from Ohio.

And judging by the number of people who move here every year from your shithole state there's plenty of people from there that agree.

Man, you’re a thin-skinned pussy. I’m surprised you’ve lasted around here this long.

I give you props for that.

This thread has potential!
Sure, but the styling is all wrong.

You have to remove yourself from the premise to really drive the point home.
"I", "me", "my", & "mine" are frowned upon when creating a solid "passive-convince me" troll thread. The "us/we" design diffuses blowback and creates other solid avenues of attack packmates may utilize.

But, considering the source..... :rolleyes2:

Strange....the article you linked named all kinds of graduates of South Carolina College, including the ringleader General Martin Witherspoon Gary and the also indicted Matthew Butler.

Clemson was founded where it was because of the will of Thomas Green Clemson. When he died childless he left the Fort Hill plantation to the state to establish an A&M college because of the fact that South Carolina College had neglected it's duty to educate the entire state, instead concentrating on being the school for the Charleston and Columbia elites.
Clemson was formed because SC decided to educate black folks. Ben Tillman was having none of that so he built Clemson. The rest is history. Hell, Frank Howard famously stated no black person would ever play for Clemson. He used the N word though.

Pfft...NO. They LIKE being out in the middle of nowhere. Makes it easier to drink/fuck
