do y'all get excited to watch us play basketball again? They're young, they have chemistry and they make plays! I wish basketball games continue to draw bigger crowds, it makes the experience so much better. And continuing with the subject line, do y'all think the 2014's DLine is the best DLine we have ever had as a unit? Might be tough to beat those guys. Also, I'm super pumped for baseball season. I think we can be scary good, as long as we are playing good down the stretch because its those types of teams that win the whole thing. Its a great time to be a Clemson Tiger!

We are a great all around school full of kids who come here to get a great education while simultaneously being able too watch some of the best in the country compete on Saturday's and seeing some young talent compete on the hardwood. Then when the 4 years are done, they slam the degree on the table and get the job. Go Tigers

What is even more surprising to me, I haven't seen one fire Brownell today or last night. After the FSU game a cple of ago weeks ago, before the game was over, T-net was in a assassinate Brownell melt down. And Brownell needed armed body guards to get to his vehicle wearing body armor. If we were to win every game left on the schedule. And then played a pro team, Brownell would get death threats if we lost to the Miami Heat. Today's fans don't have any patients for recruiting the recruits it takes to build a winning program. Before the ink is dry on a new coach hire, fans want results now. And it doesn't matter if the previous coach left our program in shambles b/c chasing after young ladies was more important to him than recruiting young men. Brownell will win at Clemson if given a chance to BUILD a program along with building the Clemson name as a serious Basketball school, with fans that believe in him. Solid orange fans, new and remolded facilities will be one of Brownell's best recruiting tools. Brownell is taking his less talented program, and beating programs that on paper should beat us. He has 3 true freshman, 1 RS freshman, 4 sophomores, 1 RS sophomore, and 5 juniors without not even 1 senior leadership player on his team. And our tallest players are 6'10". Duke has 4 Seniors with a 7' center, FSU has 4 Seniors with a 7'3" center. VT has a Senior and a RS Senior with a 6'10" forward and a 6'11" forward. Wake has 2 Seniors with a 7' center. All above schools mention has out recruited us as far as the star rating. Give Brownell a few 4 and 5 star players, and look out acc, Brownell will spank some big #### in the acc. Gooooo Brad Brownell or Brownlee, what ever they want to call him. I like COACH Brownell myself.

Basketball is more often than not a game of match ups.

FSU is a bad match up for us. People, including myself, jumped the gun on what the season was looking like after that FSU loss. Once the smoke cleared, the Duke game was played and it became clear again when we aren't faced with long athletic teams, we will be competitive and have an excellent choice of winning. The UMASS game was the first sign of this problem and the FSU game next. We had other issues arise with Auburn and Arkansas. I don't know off hand how many teams are built like FSU, but I'm thinking not too many. I know Syracuse is usually another one like that.
