How do you figure?
They make a real effort to reach out to South Carolina, and they have a huge following throughout NC. I mean, they hold training camp at Wofford.
They hold training camp at Wofford so that Richardson could benefit from the money he donated to Wofford to upgrade facilities. Pretty good deal...donate the money, get a tax write off, your football team gets nice facilities for summer camp.
And the economic impact of the Charlotte Panthers training camp ($13.25 million) is only slightly more than one Clemson home football game ($10.3 million).
As for the outreach........where in SC have they made an effort?
