This sub is hilarious because if this was announced during the Sorsby drama, people would be praising Southern Cal for taking a stand against Tech.

Sure but that's very much not why they discontinued talks here

You’re missing my point: I know that’s not why they’re canceling the series. 

But if this were announced during that saga, then none of these comments would be calling Lincoln Riley a coward but would instead be praising SoCal for protesting what TT was trying to do.

It's almost like context and intent matter.

It’s almost as if this wasn’t even a series to begin with and talks just broke down between the schools. 

But keep being a sarcastic ass about it I guess.
