I don't think they've been banned from anything, Camp. Are you sure?
It's not that South Carolina teams are "banned" from NCAA sports, it's that South Carolina cities are not chosen to host championship games or bowl games.
Oh. Even still, I think both Clemson and USC generate enough revenue to counteract that. It sure helps here in Athens with UGA and the last time we hosted a major sporting event was the 1996 Olympics (the women's soccer part.)
What do you mean by "counteract" that?
They'd make a fuck-ton more revenue if they were allowed to host championship games.
