Thoughts on postseason play


Feb 9, 2016, 7:31 PM

Since MBB is still above .500, but on outside looking in for NCAA's right now. I feel that a NIT bid is reasonable given what we've done to start out conference play, but if that doesn't come, main question becomes should the Tigers accept a CBI bid?

My opinion is if it comes down to it, the MBB team should take it, especially given working their way to be in position for postseason play despite the bad play in non-conference play and factoring in they played away from home all season. The extra practice time wouldn't hurt, plus if they get some wins, gives the team something to build on for 2016-17 when they return to Littlejohn.

Thoughts from the rest of you?

I don't think Clemson would ever accept lower than an NIT bid. I've created a complete mental block if we ever have before.

100% correct.

Paying for play on games not on real TV is a waste of time and money.

Also Clemson in the NIT or other tournaments will either play away or somewhere else. I would assume the Clemson contract at the Well does not include post season

Clemson would not accept anything lower than NIT

although we still have a great shot to get in the dance this year

Reespctfully, who cares outside of the real tournament?


Feb 9, 2016, 10:44 PM

There is only one tournament that remotely matters. Its just more practice, which is good for young players, but the other tournaments do not matter at all.

I can see the benefit of the NIT...


Feb 9, 2016, 10:48 PM

MSG has some draw... and there's extra practice time...

but you are correct in that only one tournament ultimately matters

About practice for next year..


Feb 9, 2016, 11:08 PM

Tough part is that 3 of our starters won't be back next year if Blossongame leaves.

the benefits definitely run in cycles


Feb 9, 2016, 11:09 PM

which is why we need to finish 5-1 and just go dancing

upcoming schedules should be able to see what is in front of us...

Miami's win over Pitt tonight put us in 6th. Miami is 2 games ahead with a BRUTAL stretch coming up. We hold the tiebreaker. Duke is one game ahead, with a tough stretch...and we hold the tiebreaker.

A double bye is not a pipe dream... if we can play well, it is very much in play.

I think we should go 6-0 from now on

The prize is an invite to the NCAA ... the NIT, its like getting a participation trophy in Little League ...

Do not like when people say, "well ... they could get 4 out of next 6 maybe ..." Just play up to the potential and win 6.
