This brings up a question
Jun 1, 2010, 9:35 AM

Would you rather have a season in which we are great in football (Top 5 team), but stink it up in football and baseball, or like this year where we are good but not great in all three?

Stats like these are a joke. We haven't won #### in years and the chances of winning a championship in any of the major sports in the next year don't look that great right now.

well, if the pair of them isn't to be fired for being in charge of one of only 4 colleges in the United States who've been to consecutive bowls, consecutive NCAA basketball tournaments and consecutive NCAA baseball regionals the last two years, then for God's sake fire them before the Clemson golf team has a chance to win the National Championship...........again.
Oh yeah, did I mention the two of them stupidly led Clemson athletic teams to remarkable academic scores the last two years as well??? Send them packing immediately!!!!

and TDP just wants to play golf and take naps! Neither cares about Clemson sports! They don't know what it was like in the good 'ol days! Bring back Danny! Clemson isn't as wonderful as it was in the 80s! Blah blah blah.

These stats like this that the AD throws out are meaningless. Who cares if we particpated in these? Did we win anything? No.
Clemson again trying to lower your expectations.

Jun 1, 2010, 4:09 PM

makes us average? If it were average, then roughly half of the schools would claim that level of performance or better. But instead, you only have 8 who can say that.
Next.

Championship triple
Jun 1, 2010, 10:48 AM
|
|
How about pulling off a national title triple.
Hell! I'll take 2 out of 3.
We keep patting ourselves in the back for something so minute, while others are winning championships.
I hope we have not come to the point where we're just satisfied to be mediocre!

Yay! One of 68 bowl teams & top 64 basketball/baseball teams
Jun 1, 2010, 1:18 PM

I get tired of TDP's PR department propping him up by spinning these absurdly contrived stats. Let me rephrase the propaganda...
Clemson was one of 68 football teams to go bowling. (57% of the 119 FBS teams go bowling.) Clemson hasn't won the ACC in 2 decades. But to their credit, they made it to the ACCCG.
Men's basketball team finished 5th in the ACC but became one of 65 NCAA tournament teams, where they lost first round (again). They haven't won the ACC in 56 years.
Clemson's (once-great) baseball team finished 4th in the ACC (again) this season with a 1-2 ACC tourney record. NCAA tourney results TBD.
TDP has achieved upper mediocrity in the big three sports.

basketball 65/347 = 10% and 64/211 = 30%
Jun 1, 2010, 1:29 PM
|
|
so while 57% isn't impressive, 30% and 10% are
put all 3 together and its an impressive run, considering 2 years running.
I love it that being moderately successful in the 3 major sports pisses people off. I guess its championships or nothing.

you need to pull for another school, which would be easier than TDP going anywhere..

Being 8 out of 100 is much less impressive than 8 out of 300 - you were tryingto "spin" that you could see the math both ways... uh... no.

Jun 1, 2010, 4:32 PM

and we are one of those 8.
yes I can spin that.
Just like you can spin an ACC championship game appearance as an unsuccessful season.
