It summer and six weeks to Week Zero Games

A little fun or a little revenge

What is your worst restaurant service?

I have been to Coconut Joes on Isle of Palms two times in six months and BOTH times the server upped the tip. Thieves!

Let’s hear your story?

enough to make Booker Pickett's top five. A trip to campus could help close the gap here

Some quick notes, injury updates and more from the seven periods of open practice this morning. This was the first of four open practices we get during fall camp, with the next one coming on Monday.

From where different players are working positionally, an update on Jaylen Nichols from the man himself and much more, here are ten tidbits from South Carolina's local media day today.

Getting ready to hear from Shane Beamer at local media day for half an hour. Assistant coaches and players will be available in gaggle formats later, and we'll have a ton of content coming up from those interviews later.

Beamer starts at 3 p.m.

Has anyone ever taken the United Airlines Island Hopper flight from Hawaii to Guam? I’m thinking of putting it on my Bucket List.

Ya'll still worried about recruiting or what?
Also, not too toot my own horn, but that one has been cooking for a bit:

4-star ATH Zy’Marion Lang should make his commitment decision around 5 pm EST this evening. He’s choosing between a final 4 of South Carolina, USF, Kansas State, and Pitt.

I’ve had a futurecast in for SC for a couple of months now and haven’t heard anything to make me adjust it, though he has visited K-State and USF in the last few weeks.

from St Louis to the Texas Rangers

I would say it's no coincidence he decommitted from Ohio State following his visit to South Carolina this weekend, though there's still a long way to the finish line here.

Much more here:

This month's concept is a turn-key opportunity that offers a home-based, no inventory business model.

• Offers a flexible schedule
• Scalable business model
• Recession proof
• Low overhead - no retail storefront required, few employees
• Amazing product selection and quality
• Unparalleled training and support
• Exclusive vendor partnerships
• Solid average ticket

What concept do you think it is?
Thanks for playing!

Seeing the passing of Joe Lee Dunn, I started reading about some of the old Morrison Day as Dunn was one of the guys Joe played racquet ball with the day he died. Of course it’s hard to read about Morrison without reading about the Steroid Scandal.

My question is, what are the fans thoughts on former DL Tommy Chaikin who is responsible for going to Sports Illustrated and contributing to the article being written. I know he accused many, Including Todd Ellis, of asking for steroids. Ellis seemed frustrated with Chaikin, saying the team felt betrayed by him as he should’ve come to the team if he had issues rather than going to the media. Of course all deny Chaikin’s accusations.

It’s crazy reading about him having the barrel of a gun on his chin in The Roost the night before the 1987 Clemson - Carolina game. He eventually let his dad come get him and he missed the game as they flew to Washington DC to get him some help. He said former teammates have reached out from time to time, even inviting him to come to a game at Williams-Brice…but at the time (around 2005) he wasn’t sure what the fan response would be.

I do wonder what the response would be…

Get ready for week one to be an even bigger game now, as for the first time since 2014, College Gameday will be braodcasting live from a South Carolina game.

I love starting the football season with a good doc football doc. Last Chance U use to hit the spot and this season Netflix's Quarterback is excellent. I'm half way through the show. Impressions:

Mahomes is likable and pretty down to earth for a superstar.

The entire Cousins family is great. Kirk is a huge nerd and his wife Julie is a sweetheart. I'm guessing Kirk gained some fans this offseason.

Mariotta is a little more reserved but he's in a tougher place in his career right now than the other two.

My question is - if they did a college version of Quarterback - who would you want to see featured.

I'd go Rattler, Maye, and a super vet like Hartman at Notre Dame or Nix at Oregon.

Kitts nearly had a double-double with 15 points and nine rebounds in 20 minutes.
