Sports is the last to go.

When you’re a dying jock school, the last thing to go is your sports program.

South Carolina State will probably be shut down or absorbed into another institution in a few years. Few people enroll. It’s totally corrupt. It has almost no money. It’s such a boringly absolute fiasco that people don’t even pay attention to it anymore.

Its sports teams are also in the toilet; but in a recent interview the school’s athletics director put it all in perspective:

[The AD] said it is important to the athletics department and to the university for the football and men’s basketball programs to experience success. At a school in financial crisis with dwindling enrollment, athletics accomplishments can provide a morale boost for the student body.

Let’s spend the few dollars we were able to free from the grip of thieving trustees and administrators on games! Let’s go out with a smile.
