Re: Carolina Tip Off Club
The first season Coach Horn was here he supported the club, but as the season progressed, he seemed to lose interest - was late to meetings, etc. This past season it was decided that the athletic department wasn't going to support the club. By support I mean, the coaching staff wasn't interested in continuing it. (The club was a self-supporting booster club that raised money for Coaches vs. Cancer, The Columbia Area Boys and Girls Club, provided assistance with the Men's basketball Year End Awards Ceremony, provided breakfast for the former players when they were in town for the 100 year reunion, included the NIT players in a special dinner where they received their rings, etc.)
The University said that the club could continue as a basketball booster club, but they wouldn't help us line up speakers, come to any meetings, etc. Instead they decided to begin a donuts with Darrin and lunch with Darrin type venue. After a lot of consideration it was decided that the club shouldn’t continue. Our typical speakers were the opposing coach and without the staff’s buy in getting speakers would’ve been difficult. The club has been around since before Coach McGuire. At first it was limited to 100 members but grew over the years, particularly when Coach Fogler was at USC. He loved the club and knew that this is the die hard fan who contributed a lot of money to all of the sports, traveled with the teams, and supported the coach when times get tough. It’s a shame that it’s gone, but things change. Maybe one day it will be re-formed, but as long as Coach Horn is here that won’t happen. |

Re: Carolina Tip Off Club
It may not have been Horn's decision, it may have been an Athletics Department decision. Who knows.
