TO THE EDITOR
I have wanted to write the
Gamecock on several occasions,
but I have felt the
opinions expressed by the
editor have been responsible
even though many of his
opinions were what I considered
to be contrary to
those of the majority of the
student body. However,
after reading your editorial
in the November 23rd issue
("Lost Season") concerning
Jim Carlen, I felt compelled
to respond. Never before has
one .of the "anti-USC"
editorials, so popular in the
media around here, angered
me so. You, the editor, have
definitely overstepped your
boundaries, if you feel you
have any, that is, by
suggesting that the head
coach resign.

I say "anti-USC" because
the editorial was a direct
attack, regardless of what
you say, on our head coach,
which is an indirect attack
on our entire football
program. The editorial was
a product of "negative
thinking", a term which Jim
Carlen coined. I came from a
town very close to Clemson
and I was glad to get away
from the obnoxious Clemson
atmosphere. Because I am
familiar with Clemson's
football program, it leads
me to believe that the
problem with USC's
program does not lie with the
head coach, but with the
general attitude of the fans,
students, and alumni. USC
has never been satisfied with
anything it has ever had.
You, the editor suggested
that we need a "Dick Crum"

we were upset by
Clemson last year and USC's
success is measured solely
on whether or not we beat
them. You, the editor stated
that the seniors have lost to

four years which is completely
true. Not only that,
but USC has lost five of
seven games to Ciemson
since Carlen has been
