The Tiger women are in the Elite 8 Saturday against Penn State at Riggs Field. At least, Tigernet should show this on the schedule. There may be locals that can attend the game and get home for Big Game at 7:30 PM! We need to support this team and help them to reach the Final Four!

Would be cool if there was a soccer board too…oh, wait.

The mods explained that it takes way too much staff to update the schedule. Or something. Sounded more like “we don’t care”, but maybe that was just the way I read it.

Ok. You’re right.
I get a bit of an attitude when constantly being reminded by others that nobody cares about soccer, much less women’s soccer.
I do appreciate your coverage of Clemson sports.

W. basketball and softball unlike every other site. We actually have plans for a new writer to do a weekly roundup story of tennis, lacrosse, women's soccer, volleyball etc.
I would love to be able to cover every single Clemson sport - it's a worthy goal!

I appreciate Noodle and all our Tigers on here that post and actually attend our sporting events.
I've expressed criticism of the coverage of sports on a couple occasions. In fact, one of your minion poster T-Net clic pointed it out to you and other staff.
I've written AD Neff as well. While I appreciate your comments and future plans, it's not necessarily a tigernet problem. Imho, it's more of an AD issue.
I'll explain below.
Btw- I'm a fan of Neff. He's doing good stuff. Sadly, you can't change the fanbase and the large majority of Clemson fans perception that other sports, and definitely women's sports are irrelevant and an unwanted drag financially. Living in small town rural Pennsylvania, I can attest that thinking is both ignorant and short sited. It's been proven women's sports to be a valuable asset up here to Penn St.
No, they don't operate in the black per se. But it's synergy. The coverage up here is widely published. It's facts that excellent football and basketball players have come to psu because said players had girlfriends, sisters, etc play sports and was a deciding factor. Dabo supports our women's athletics because he gets it.
If anyone bothered to read this, then do yourself a favor and peruse Penn St athletic site. The link is to their women's soccer page. They even offer live chat. How cool would that be. I digress, but it's huge and the coverage from the last match will blow our site to bits. No reason our AD couldn't do this:

Ps > the pics you see on the psu soccer pages are taken from the visitor section.
Also, it will be our toughest match this year. And I'm well aware we've played fsu. Saying, they have a world class coach and wsoc program. Attendance is down because they haven't made the cup lately after winning the natty in 15.
I went to their match earlier this season for the unc game and I thought I was at a fb game. Had the whiteout and all. My church buds are astounded that my team only draws 800 people in a ncaa tournament game. My rant. Sorry. Won't be any more.
Be loud those that can attend. The big psu gals practice against men and part of ther training is running up and down snow covered mountains.. lol

I guess it is going to be on ESPN+ so only a half dozen people can see it.

ESPN+ is worth the cost in the fall. We follow a lot of different college soccer teams and some FCS/mid-major football.
I guess if all you care about is power 5 football it wouldn’t make sense to subscribe. If you’re a soccer fan, it’s a must IMO.
