Tiger baseball/stadium current state

I like monte and brownell but times ticking. That’s my only thing. B-ball it’s hard because of how deep acc is. Not sure can get much better there. Baseball on other hand monte won it with jacks guys and has done well until this year for mid week games. However jack put us there in regionals and supers but couldn’t get over the hump. Bowden wasn’t bad like people say. Always going to bowls but couldn’t win those marque games to get us to the next level. It’s hard comparing different sports especially when one is so dominant. Another note is that we have had good players but they leave early for draft or we get commits but they go early in draft. Can we not get some more juco guys like in all sports. I love to develop and home grown talent but If you build it/ offer they will come. We went to car during rain last night. We normally park near softball because this year most of our seats are there this year. We parked out in jervey last night and I noticed weeds inside and out of stadium and faded seats and cob Web up near press box seats and where Danny sits. I noticed the baseballs starting to look eh. Sitting outfield the paw close up on indoors cages is faded. I notice crowd isn’t in it like it use to be. We have money and facilities we are asking for me. Details matter to me and I’m sure of others. Sec baseball is so different. I’ve heard bc they have more room for scholarships not sure how true but just watching those games on tv and been to some it puts us to shame. Now acc isn’t a slouch in baseball but I compare our stadium to unc fsu, lville, even wake and others and the small things matter! The Doug use to be loud and top place to see and play at. Do fans care anymore or does d rad? Or is it just a event to see and something to do until the fall? #makeclemsonbaseballgreatagain #makethedougloudagain

Yeah, I figured this would get a TD. Mine do too. All I want is a serious question about baseball. Sure the little things matter and you're not talking a ton of dollars. It portrays as attitude that it doesn't matter.
Look at how Dabo is, he's as detailed oriented as they come. Has recruiting trips to fine tuned well managed trips... As for SEC and more schollys, that only applies to vandy. Last year our class was adjusted 28th. That's the rankings of kids that made it to campus. Miami was 1. Coots were 10th and it's showing.
I disagree with judge on bball because imo, Brownell not the man to get us to where we can be. But judge brings up some of these details too. And they do matter. It's top down. No one was satisfied with Bowden. Monte is the same way. He'll recruit in the 20's and 30's with an occasional top 15. Dabo did too but Dabo coached his way to win the big series and games... Then recruited better and better.
Imo, that's where Brad and Monte miss. Can't take said talent and get more from them. CofC perfect example. They don't have more talent. Former Clemson players who like Monte say our hitting approach is terrible. I'm no coach and not advocating for a change but if they're not able to win like we should, something or some one needs to be held accountable.

Yeah, he was. Mid week teams needing a marquee win, will chunk one of their better starters. I get it, but teams like Clemson should beat their ace...

seriously, baseball games are waaaaaaay too long. I can't stand to see the batter re-adjust their batting gloves and cup holder after every pitch. Change the rules, every one gets one pitch, if its a strike your out, if not go to first. Let everyone take steroids

Yep! I'd rather watch paint dry than watch baseball nowadays

I'm 61 and used to not be this way. Grew up listening to the Big Red Machine on my little AM radio as a kid. I can understand kids nowadays not going to a game. Their minds are running 120 mph and baseball games are going 25 mph. Softball is running at 55 mph!
And then MLB brings politics into it. Not sure why they can't do what The Masters do and stay out of it.
I'm not an expert, but I'm not sure it's Clemson's fault that the Doug is not loud anymore. It might be just a sign of the times.
But, as always,
Go Tigers AND Stay Well Clemson Nation!

Played in some 1pitch softball tournaments back in the day. Either a ball or a strike. You’d better swing if you could reach it. They were fun and the games moved quickly.

Attendance is limited to 1280 max this year due to COVID. No

chance of increase until McMaster lifts restrictions. In regards to schollies, maximum per team is 11.7. The private institutions, such as Vandy, Stanford, et al., can offer academic scholarships to cover the cost of attendance, therefore attracting more and better baseball players who don't want to play minor-league ball straight out of high school.
As far as maintenance, cutbacks everywhere due to COVID. Coaches took a 10% pay cut. I am hopeful that the AD will do something now that the problem is being noticed. Squeaky wheel, you know.

FOGHORN LIFTED THE RESTRICTIONS ON MARCH 5TH. CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW MANY PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW THAT. HE LIFTED THE MASK MANDATE, LET BARS AND RESTAURANTS GO TO 100%, AND LIFTED THE LARGE SCALE GATHERING RESTRICTION. GOOGLE IS A GREAT THING. I HAVE BEEN TO SEVERAL BARS WHERE THE WORKERS AND CUSTOMERS NO LONGER WEAR MASKS. THOSE PEOPLES WORK ENVIRONMENT IS SO GREAT. AMAZING HOW MANY RESTAURANTS STILL REQUIRE THEIR WORKERS TO WEAR THOSE FILTHY THINGS. IF BARS CAN OPEN AT 100% WHY CAN CLEMSON NOT LET IN MORE FANS. I HAVE EMAILED DRAD 4 TIMES AND GOTTEN THE SAME BULLSH!T REPLY. OLE MISS HAD 33000 FANS AT THEIR SERIES LAST WEEKEND. MAYBE IF OTHERS WOULD COMPLAIN SOMETHING WOULD GET DONE.

de, I know you go to all the games. Sam said in his interview last night about the same as hack alluded to about players being too tight and all the players essentially wanting to be the guy. True, we don't have top 10 talent but we got some kids with a lot of talent. A friend of mine has a son (going to play with citadel) that's Ty best friend. While she won't, and I'd never ask, what her son says.. But I'll say this, she is dumbfounded at Clemson's record this year.
Any clues? Tia
On a side note, hack shouldn't be playing. I don't think he's 100 yet. French at least threw out a few... And his hitting albeit spotty was a little better.

Oh someone crying on covid. I wore masks and distances and such and got it in spring last year. My gf and others I know got the shot and got sick. Yeah what’s long term effects and such. We can’t cure cancer but cure this new thing this fast? Nah. If afraid to go out don’t go. We shouldn’t be forced to get something. Most deaths are from people with other illness. Yeah it’s lib univ controlled my gov why we haven’t opened stadiums back up. Smh. Maybe it will happen when students leave but I doubt.

I can’t believe anyone actually watches baseball. I went to 1 baseball game my entire time at Clemson and that was just me trying to get lucky with a coed.
You literally couldn’t pay me to go to a baseball game.
