Last year they ran onto the field after their victory over The Citadel waving brooms and proclaiming a "sweep" in the series between the schools. That action really sets the tone with so many things Chadwell has said with the media....constantly playing the chip-on-the-shoulder-under-dog card. At the same time he's got this "Awe Shucks" southern thing going.... Like I said, I don't buy it and I have seen through it from the beginning.
Many of you older posters will remember Bobby Bentley as the brief coach at PC....flamefans raked him over the coals for this same kind of stuff. He took a team photo in front of the scoreboard after defeating VMI at VMI. He was always quoting quasi-theology about God "expanding his territory" within the context of football.....And y'all were right. He was a clown. He walked around like he owned PC. Like he didn't have to follow the rules. We ended up vacated 2 victories from the 2010 season because of shenanigans he committed in his 2 years there. Chadwell is the same guy.
And if you don't believe me yet, there this. CSU's 2016 team football shirts contain a rifle scope and cross-hairs. Inside the cross-hairs are the words "The Next 1." Really? With all of the talk of gun violence and mass shooting which have occurred in the last few years INCLUDING ONE IN CHARLESTON DURING WHICH THE MOTHER OF A CSU BASEBALL PLAYER WAS KILLED and another where a N. Charleston police officer shoots and kills a fleeing unarmed man in the back....MAYBE PUTTING SCOPE AND CROSS-HAIRS ON YOUR TEAM T-SHIRT ISN'T THE BEST MESSAGE YOU TO SEND TO THE WORLD.
But hey, what else should we expect at this point. Check out the video below

No way all the suspensions are about a new over-zealous compliance officer. Sure she is setting the tone. But Chadwell and Co. have had this coming for a while haven't they?
The accounts for Fall scholarship usage at the bookstore were probably just settled and analyzed. And the brand new compliance director probably discovered her worst nightmare. After seeing it this year, she looks back and finds it's been happening for some time. Oops!
Just conjecture here...
But there's two stories here: the crime, and the reveal in I it to the public. To the new compliance director, Good old rule:
"When you're new in town, make friends before you make enemies."
Make no mistake, she didn't bank on Chadwell making so much noise about this behind the scenes, and Hank Small doesn't have the control he may have thoght he did. Truth be told, Small answers to a VP who may have thought he, too, could control this. But Chadwell has the media, namely, Gene Sapakoff in his corner. And that's given the VP, AD Small, and Ashton the compliance director more to deal with in the public arena than they ever thought.
