A Donor’s Passion Animates the Gamecocks’
Success
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Under the
generous shade of oak trees in a parking lot across the street from
Williams-Brice Stadium last Thursday afternoon, as many as 100 people mingled
between a catered buffet and a trailer with an amply loaded bar.
Their host was Joe Rice, a South
Carolina graduate (college and law school), a successful Charleston lawyer and
a booster who in the last decade has, with his wife, Lisa, donated about $5
million to the Gamecocks athletic program.
Tailgate guests included an old
friend who was Alpha Tau Omega’s treasurer when Rice was its president, the
wife of a top South Carolina football recruiter and the 5-year-old daughter of
a lawyer in Rice’s firm who could say on demand, “Beat those Clemson Tigers.”
(The game that night was against Texas A&M.)
Also present was Dean Felber, a 1989
graduate, a winemaker and the bass player in a notable Columbia export, Hootie
& the Blowfish. “Everyone knows Joe,” Felber said.
“I know most of them,” said
Rice, 60, wearing a garnet polo shirt with the Gamecocks logo, gray khaki
shorts and flip-flops. He presided as a father of the bride presides: charming
but not eccentric, gregarious but not loud. Seven days a year (plus a few away
games), Rice gets to be cock of the walk.
“I travel in a pack,” he said.
For Rice, being a benefactor is
about nostalgia and fun. Perks include befriending the coach. Rice has taken
Steve Spurrier on his yacht, and last year he went golfing in Ireland with
Spurrier and his coaching brethren Kevin Sumlin of Texas A&M and Bob Stoops
of Oklahoma.
It is also nice having things named
after you. “You’re in his building,” Athletic Director Ray Tanner said,
referring to his own office in the Rice Athletics Center, which opened in 2012.
Above all, Rice said, being a
booster is about supporting a team and an institution that has been at the
center of his sprawling personal and professional life.
“Helping it,” he said of football,
“helps the university.”
Even aside from super-donors like
Phil Knight (Oregon) and T. Boone Pickens (Oklahoma State), top athletic
departments receive a large and disproportionately significant chunk of their
financing from boosters. Their passion is part of what makes college sports distinctive.
“He is sort of like the owner of a team,”
Spurrier said when asked about Rice during the Southeastern Conference Media
Days in July. “They put the money up. The good
thing about it, they don’t tell us what to do.”
Tanner, speaking of the Rices, said,
“Of all the conversations I’ve had with them, it’s never once been about any
type of criticism or analysis.”
Still, boosters create “an
interesting dynamic for state universities, which are in theory governed by the
state,” said Joel Maxcy, a professor at Temple who specializes in sports
economics. “You have individuals with financial wherewithal that do very
helpful things but have considerable influence.”
Boosters could grow even more
essential if athletic departments face higher demands because of the recent O’Bannon ruling, in which a judge said that
players should be compensated for the commercial use of their names, images and
likenesses, and major-conference autonomy, of which South
Carolina’s president, Harris Pastides, was an important proponent.
“I don’t want to feel any effects
financially of this landscape that changes,” Tanner said.
The new SEC Network may supercharge South
Carolina’s revenue while not easing the pressure on donors in the conference,
each of whose schools will get identical payouts.
The average Division I athletic department received a
quarter of its “generated revenue,” or revenue not allocated from other parts
of the university, from contributions, a close second to ticket sales as a
source of funding, according to the N.C.A.A.
And that understates how vital
boosters are, given that, as Rice put it, “you don’t build facilities on ticket
sales.”
When it comes to donors, “there’s no
cap there,” said Jeff Crane, South Carolina’s senior associate athletic
director for development.“The donors determine the success of our program to a
great extent,” Crane said.

HANSEL AND GRETEL
Near a great forest there lived a poor woodcutter
and his wife, and his two children; the boy's name was Hansel and the girl's
Grethel. They had very little to bite or to sup, and once, when there was great
dearth in the land, the man could not even gain the daily bread. As he lay in
bed one night thinking of this, and turning and tossing, he sighed heavily, and
said to his wife, "What will become of us? we cannot even feed our
children; there is nothing left for ourselves."
"I will tell you what, husband,"
answered the wife; "we will take the children early in the morning into
the forest, where it is thickest; we will make them a fire, and we will give
each of them a piece of bread, then we will go to our work and leave them
alone; they will never find the way home again, and we shall be quit of
them."
"No, wife," said the man, "I
cannot do that; I cannot find in my heart to take my children into the forest
and to leave them there alone; the wild animals would soon come and devour
them." - "O you fool," said she, "then we will all four
starve; you had better get the coffins ready," and she left him no peace
until he consented. "But I really pity the poor children," said the
man.
The two children had not been able to sleep for
hunger, and had heard what their step-mother had said to their father. Grethel
wept bitterly, and said to Hansel, "It is all over with us."
"Do be quiet, Grethel," said Hansel, "and do not fret; 1 will manage
something." And when the parents had gone to sleep he got up, put on
his little coat, opened the back door, and slipped out. The moon was shining
brightly, and the white flints that lay in front of the house glistened like
pieces of silver. Hansel stooped and filled the little pocket of his coat as
full as it would hold. Then he went back again, and said to Grethel, "Be
easy, dear little sister, and go to sleep quietly; God will not forsake
us," and laid himself down again in his bed. When the day was breaking,
and before the sun had risen, the wife came and awakened the two children,
saying, "Get up, you lazy bones; we are going into the forest to cut
wood." Then she gave each of them a piece of bread, and said, "That
is for dinner, and you must not eat it before then, for you will get no
more." Grethel carried the bread under her apron, for Hansel had his
pockets full of the flints. Then they set off all together on their way to the
forest. When they had gone a little way Hansel stood still and looked back
towards the house, and this he did again and again, till his father said to him,
"Hansel, what are you looking at? take care not to forget your legs."
"O father," said Hansel, "I am
looking at my little white kitten, who is sitting up on the roof to bid me
good-bye." - "You young fool," said the woman, "that is not
your kitten, but the sunshine on the chimney-pot." Of course Hansel had
not been looking at his kitten, but had been taking every now and then a flint
from his pocket and dropping it on the road. When they reached the middle of
the forest the father told the children to collect wood to make a fire to keep
them, warm; and Hansel and Grethel gathered brushwood enough for a little
mountain j and it was set on fire, and when the flame was burning quite high
the wife said, "Now lie down by the fire and rest yourselves, you children,
and we will go and cut wood; and when we are ready we will come and fetch
you."
So Hansel and Grethel sat by the fire, and at
noon they each ate their pieces of bread. They thought their father was in the
wood all the time, as they seemed to hear the strokes of the axe: but really it
was only a dry branch hanging to a withered tree that the wind moved to and
fro. So when they had stayed there a long time their eyelids closed with
weariness, and they fell fast asleep.
When at last they woke it was night, and Grethel began to cry, and said, "How shall we ever get out of this wood? "But Hansel comforted her, saying, "Wait a little while longer, until the moon rises, and then we can easily find the way home." And when the full moon got up Hansel took his little sister by the hand, and followed the way where the flint stones shone like silver, and showed them the road. They walked on the whole night through, and at the break of day they came to their father's house. They knocked at the door, and when the wife opened it and saw that it was Hansel and Grethel she said, "You naughty children, why did you sleep so long in the wood? we thought you were never coming home again!" But the father was glad, for it had gone to his heart to leave them both in the woods alone.

"But Hansel comforted her, saying, "Wait a little while longer, until the moon rises, and then we can easily find the way home." And when the full moon got up Hansel took his little sister by the hand, and followed the way where the flint stones shone like silver, and showed them the road. They walked on the whole night through, and at the break of day they came to their father's house. They knocked at the door, and when the wife opened it and saw that it was Hansel and Grethel she said, "You naughty children, why did you sleep so long in the wood? we thought you were never coming home again!" But the father was glad, for it had gone to his heart to leave them both in the woods alone.
Not very long after that there was again great
scarcity in those parts, and the children heard their mother say at night in
bed to their father, "Everything is finished up; we have only half a loaf,
and after that the tale comes to an end. The children must be off; we will take
them farther into the wood this time, so that they shall not be able to find
the way back again; there is no other way to manage." The man felt sad at
heart, and he thought, "It would better to share one's last morsel with one's
children." But the wife would listen to nothing that he said, but scolded
and reproached him. He who says A must say B too, and when a man has given in
once he has to do it a second time.
But the children were not asleep, and had heard
all the talk. When the parents had gone to sleep Hansel got up to go out and
get more flint stones, as he did before, but the wife had locked the door, and
Hansel could not get out; but he comforted his little sister, and said,
"Don't cry, Grethel, and go to sleep quietly, and God will help us."
Early the next morning the wife came and pulled the children out of bed. She
gave them each a little piece of "bread -less than before; and on the way
to the wood Hansel crumbled the bread in his pocket, and often stopped to throw
a crumb on the ground. "Hansel, what are you stopping behind and
staring for?" said the father.
"I am looking at my little pigeon sitting on
the roof, to say good-bye to me," answered Hansel. "You fool,"
said the wife, "that is no pigeon, but the morning sun shining on the
chimney pots." Hansel went on as before, and strewed bread crumbs all
along the road. The woman led the children far into the wood, where they had
never been before in all their lives. And again there was a large fire made,
and the mother said, "Sit still there, you children, and when you are
tired you can go to sleep; we are going into the forest to cut wood, and in the
evening, when we are ready to go home we will come and fetch you."
So when noon came Grethel shared her bread with Hansel,
who had strewed his along the road. Then they went to sleep, and the evening
passed, and no one came for the poor children. When they awoke it was dark
night, and Hansel comforted his little sister, and said, "Wait a little,
Grethel, until the moon gets up, then we shall be able to see the way home by
the crumbs of bread that I have scattered along it."
So when the moon rose they got up, but they could
find no crumbs of bread, for the birds of the woods and of the fields had come
and picked them up. Hansel thought they might find the way all the same, but
they could not. They went on all that night, and the next day from the morning
until the evening, but they could not find the way out of the wood, and they
were very hungry, for they had nothing to eat but the few berries they could
pick up. And when they were so tired that they could no longer drag themselves
along, they lay down under a tree and fell asleep.
It was now the third morning since they had left
their father's house. They were always trying to get back to it, but instead of
that they only found themselves farther in the wood, and if help had not soon
come they would have been starved.
About noon they saw a pretty snow-white bird sitting on a bough, and singing so sweetly that they stopped to listen. And when he had finished the bird spread his wings and flew before them, and they followed after him until they came to a little house, and the bird perched on the roof, and when they came nearer they saw that the house was built of bread, and roofed with cakes; and the window was of transparent sugar. "We will have some of this," said Hansel, "and make a fine meal. I will eat a piece of the roof, Grethel, and you can have some of the window-that will taste sweet." So Hansel reached up and broke off a bit of the roof, just to see how it tasted, and Grethel stood by the window and gnawed at it. Then they heard a thin voice call out from inside,

So Hansel reached up and broke off a bit of the roof, just to see how it tasted, and Grethel stood by the window and gnawed at it. Then they heard a thin voice call out from inside,
"Nibble, nibble, like a mouse, Who is nibbling at my house?"
And the children answered, "Never mind, It is the wind."
And they went on eating, never disturbing
themselves. Hansel, who found that the roof tasted very nice, took down a great
piece of it, and Grethel pulled out a large round window-pane, and sat her down
and began upon it. Then the door opened,
and an aged woman came out, leaning upon a crutch. Hansel and Grethel felt very
frightened, and let fall what they had in their hands. The old woman, however,
nodded her head, and said, "Ah, my dear children, how come you here? you
must come indoors and stay with me, you will be no trouble." So she took
them each by the hand, and led them into her little house. And there they found
a good meal laid out, of milk and pancakes, with sugar, apples, and nuts. After
that she showed them two little white beds, and Hansel and Grethel laid
themselves down on them, and thought they were in heaven.
The old woman, although her behaviour was so
kind, was a wicked witch, who lay in wait for children, and had built the
little house on purpose to entice them. When they were once inside she used to
kill them, cook them, and eat them, and then it was a feast day with her. The
witch's eyes were red, and she could not see very far, but she had a keen
scent, like the beasts, and knew very well when human creatures were near. When
she knew that Hansel and Grethel were coming, she gave a spiteful laugh, and
said triumphantly, "I have them, and they shall not escape me!" Early in the morning, before the
children were awake, she got up to look at them, and as they lay sleeping so
peacefully with round rosy cheeks, she said to herself, "What a fine feast
I shall have!" Then she grasped Hansel with her withered hand, and led him
into a little stable, and shut him up behind a grating; and call and scream as
he might, it was no good. Then she went back to Grethel and shook her, crying,
"Get up, lazy bones; fetch water, and cook something nice for your
brother; he is outside in the stable, and must be fattened up. And when he is
fat enough I will eat him." Grethel began to weep bitterly, but it was of
no use, she had to do what the wicked witch bade her. And so the best kind of
victuals was cooked for poor Hansel, while Grethel got nothing but crab-shells.
Each morning the old woman visited the little stable, and cried, "Hansel, stretch out your finger, that I may tell if you will soon be fat enough." Hansel, however, used to hold out a little bone, and the old woman, who had weak eyes, could not see what it was, and supposing it to be Hansel's finger, wondered very much that it was not getting fatter. When four weeks had passed and Hansel seemed to remain so thin, she lost patience and could wait no longer. "Now then, Grethel," cried she to the little girl; "be quick and draw water; be Hansel fat or be he lean, tomorrow I must kill and cook him." Oh what a grief for the poor little sister to have to fetch water, and how the tears flowed down over her cheeks! "Dear God, pray help us!" cried she; "if we had been devoured by wild beasts in the wood at least we should have died together." "Spare me your lamentations," said the old woman; "they are of no avail." Early next morning Grethel had to get up, make the fire, and fill the kettle. "First we will do the baking," said the old woman; "I nave heated the oven already, and kneaded the dough." She pushed poor Grethel towards the oven, out of which the flames were already shining. "Creep in," said the witch, "and see if it is properly hot, so that the bread may be baked." And Grethel once in, she meant to shut the door upon her and let her be baked, and then she would have eaten her. But Grethel perceived her intention, and said, "I don't know how to do it: how shall I get in?" "Stupid goose," said the old woman, "the opening is big enough, do you see? I could get in myself!" and she stooped down and put her head in the oven's mouth. Then Grethel gave her a push, so that she went in farther, and she shut the iron door upon her, and put up the bar. Oh how frightfully she howled! but Grethel ran away, and left the wicked witch to burn miserably.

Oh how frightfully she howled! but Grethel ran away, and left the wicked witch to burn miserably.
Grethel went straight to Hansel, opened the
stable-door, and cried, "Hansel, we are free! the old witch is dead!"
Then out flew Hansel like a bird from its cage as soon as the door is opened.
How rejoiced they both were! how they fell each on the other's neck! and danced
about, and kissed each other! And as they had nothing more to fear they went
over all the old witch's house, and in every corner there stood chests of
pearls and precious stones. "This is something better than flint stones,"
said Hansel, as he filled his pockets, and Grethel, thinking she also would
like to carry something home with her, filled her apron full. i! Now, away we
go," said Hansel, "if we only can get out of the witch's wood."
When they had journeyed a few hours they came to a great piece of water.
"We can never get across this," said Hansel, "I see no
stepping-stones and no bridge."
"And there is no boat either," said
Grethel; "but here comes a white duck; if I ask her she will help us
over." So she cried,
"Duck, duck, here we stand, Hansel and
Grethel, on the land,
Stepping-stones and bridge we lack, Carry us over on your nice white back."
And the duck came accordingly, and Hansel got upon her and told his sister to come too. "No," answered Grethel, "that would be too hard upon the duck; we can go separately, one after the other." And that was how it was managed, and after that they went on happily, until they came to the wood, and the way grew more and more familiar, till at last they saw in the distance their father's house. Then they ran till they came up to it, rushed in at the door, and fell on their father's neck. The man had not had a quiet hour since he left his children in the wood; but the wife was dead. And when Grethel opened her apron the pearls and precious stones were scattered all over the room, and Hansel took one handful after another out of his pocket. Then was all care at an end, and they lived in great joy together. My tale is done, there runs a mouse, whosoever catches it, may make himself a big fur cap out of it.
