    And these kids want to be paid for playing college ball including getting a free ride in college! Pathetic!

    Should be a minimum 2 year mandatory duty in the military before doing anything after high school! My opinion of course

        Now your see first hand why "waivers" exist. It's to get these kids into colleges who otherwise wouldn't have a high enough GPA to make it.

            They say there's one on campus at Clemson and he says he's not going because there isn't one?

                  Many countries require military service. Some fine you if you don't sign up.

                  But regardless...

                  I can think of a million reasons to choose one college over another. Chik-fil-a... is not one of them.

                  Proximity to a Toys R Us, though... that's a different story.

                    We have a Cik-Fil-A in our student union. It gets more patronage than the library.

                      what? Chik-fil-a is the the bomb!!

                      They should pay the kids for being athletes, the schools bank off of their skills,sweat and blood...they risk themselves to injuries and don't see a dime..they should be getting paid..I'm not talking about crazy pro money but at least $200-$250 a week for food,clothes and stuff like that

                            I think the prob is it is located just off campus if i remember correctly so if the poor starving kid has to walk an extra 200 yrds it was too much for him to take. What a maroon.

                              My guess is that there is more to the story than Chik-Fil-A. Chances are he was feeling tremendous pressure from family or others close to him to attend Clemson and he wanted to attend Auburn. He comes up with a stupid reason and it makes national headlines. Same with the student who decided to go to Alabama instead of LSU. His mother and others obviously were placing tremendous pressue on him to attend LSU. M\
