Why didn't Brad foul instead of letting them run the clock....?


Mar 19, 2021, 11:28 PM

Rutgers is a bad foul shooting team? Terrible decision...

Because he's a terrible coach that should have been fired years ago.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Because he is not very intelligent.***

Ridiculous decision

Really bad decision

Not much else to say.

Not really, just easy to say in hindsight.***

Pretty sure most were saying it at the time....


Mar 19, 2021, 11:47 PM

We had no timeouts....and would have had very little time left even if they didn’t convert.
Extending the game with a bad FT shooting team might have been a slower painful death...but we would have had a chance.

Yeah they are but I think not scoring a basket the last 4 minutes did us in. Rutgers is a scrappy team.

Because we only had 5 fouls. If they had fouled them, they just take the ball out. We would've had to found them 3 times to get them to the foul line. The decisions was close to working until the ball bounces right to their guy once again. Happened all night.

If we had 5 fouls, we would have had to foul twice, not three times. So what? It takes 1 second to commit a foul. And forcing them to inbound the ball multiple times also creates more opportunities for a turnover.

We would've also been putting the worst P5 free throw shooting team in the country in a one and one situation. I don't consider myself to be a Brownell hater, but deciding to not foul there really confused me. The announcers had even brought up the Rutgers poor free throw shooting earlier in the game, and how that could come into play in a close game in the final minutes.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

and it would have been FT under ENORMOUS pressure . . . .***

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.


The other cool thing about wanting to foul...

If you’re really smart, you can actually try aggressively to steal the ball. Maybe you’ll get the ball! And if they call a foul...oh well, that’s what you kind of wanted anyway.

I’m no basketball genius. But....I stayed at a Holiday Inn once.

Here’s the problem....


Mar 22, 2021, 11:39 AM [ in reply to Re: Why didn't Brad foul instead of letting them run the clock....? ]

If everything works out perfectly and they miss with a second left on the shot clock....you only have 6 seconds at the most with no timeouts to come down and get one shot...assuming the team that has been out rebounding you doesn’t get the board.
We needed time. Even if they made FTs...we would have at least had time for multiple possessions.
Be very aggressive...foul...then they inbound it...then be aggressive and foul again.
Instead we let a good 15-20 seconds pass before sending a trap to their PG.
If we had a timeout or more time...it would have been fine to play it out defensively.
But not in this case.

Yep. It's not even debatable. It was absolutely awful coaching.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Biggest coaching mistake tonight.


Mar 19, 2021, 11:53 PM

Our team was not shooting well in final minutes, Rutgers is one of the worst foul shooting teams, and we could have spent the last minute in free throw contest when it was within two in final minute.
