Very very well said. No truer words were written. When will these higher ups learn that the “Average Joe”have outside and inside sources to what is really going on. And just like back in the day with the pay out to Jeff Bowden, $500k I think, the boosters and alumni started to withdraw their money. One of my former clients and his family life long
alumni and boosters pulled their $500k to this cause.
Do not be so arrogant and blind Mr.T to not think it will not happen again. Many of my friends including myself are holding on to our checks and support to see what the real outcome will be!

Thrasher offered no more than lip service in an attempt to stop the fallout from boosters and alumni. Nor did he answer Preston’s question if this type of scrutiny is going to be applied to all students, faculty and staff at FSU.
There has not been a meeting or revisiting of the decision as of today. Yes, Kyle Clark is part of the problem!

Thrasher is “revisiting” the Childers situation because of all the calls ( confirmed by the person answering these calls) the university has received about withdrawing support where he needs it the most “The $$$$” . Do not be fooled by his change of heart. And if he starts the political painted causes on campus or worse the FSU football field the money will dry up completely.
Time will tell, he is gone next November, I hope the University does a better search for a new President.
I would suggest Preston Scott but he is having too much fun on the radio and we need him more there!

Thrasher has always been a reasonable guy and I am encouraged to see he plans on revisiting the Childers Construction decision. Punishment doesn’t fit the crime. St John’s Episcopal Church said it best when they said the Church speaks of people asking for forgiveness. We all should be big enough to listen when someone asks for forgiveness. Maybe it is time for Kyle Clark to be revisited too?

Asha, athletics are an extracirrucliar activity and those students on scholarship are well taken care of at a level vastly greater than those on an academic scholarship!

Tony, if you’ve played college athletics, you’d know the education in not “FREE.”

Trasher has already been sucked into the cancel culture. Actually his true colors are finally seeing the light of day. I graduated in 89 and had to fight a number of liberal profs who wanted to reduce my grade and deny my free speech because I refused to take up their mantle. One prof even wrote on a term paper if I would change my views and my paper she would increase my grade. I told her my values were not for sale at any price. FSU is not an institution of higher learning. FSU is an institution of mind manipulation.

In reply to Jonathan Anderson. When they first brought up wanting to be paid and then started talking Union, I stopped caring about College and Pro Ball. The NFL demanded Retirement Plans.. They get Multi Million Dollar Signing Bonuses and they can't save for Retirement? 90% of College Players get a FREE Education and a lot of perks and still complain? It could end tomorrow and I sure wouldn't miss it.
