18 weeks


Mar 23, 2021, 11:19 AM

Coach Brownell has had Clemson basketball ranked in the AP Top 25 a combined total of 18 weeks during his 11 year tenure. That means he’s been paid north of $1,000,000 for each appearance in the AP Top 25. Pretty low return on investment on Clemson’s part. I would love for someone to prove me wrong by finding a single other active coach with a 10+ year tenure at a P5 school with a lower return.

By comparison, Rick Barnes had Clemson ranked 34 weeks in only 4 years. That was with a team that was the first ACC basketball team to be unanimously picked dead last pre-season by ACC media leading many writers to declare them the worst team in ACC history.

Purnell had Clemson ranked 37 times over 7 seasons.

The ACC with Notre Dame, Syracuse,Miami and Pitt isn’t the same conference as it was twenty years ago.

Yes, it is significantly and objectively an easier conference by any metric. Hence, winning more ACC games than either of those predecessors but being ranked far less frequently.
