A coot is a small flightless bird. A tater is a potato. It comes from Clemson being an agriculture school, and a play on the IPTAY foundation. Which stands for I Pay Ten a Year or some shite like that I can't remember. Well SC fans changed it to "I Plant Taters All year". I'm going off memory here but I'm pretty sure this is where it derived from. I have no earthly idea where Clemson got coots from. Seems like "cocks" would give them enough ammo, but hey. Clemson.
i'm fairly certain that because there were many who could not pay ten dollars, so in the beginnings of the organization, they barted potatoes for membership
