See that's a result based decision that shouldn't hinge on the committee. The body of work is the same regardless.

You're either in or you're not.

It's akin to "sort of" being pregnant. You either are or you aren't. There is no gray area.

So does option #3 come with a participation trophy?

I don’t see Brownell being fired after this season. It has been one of our better seasons lately. But I really don’t have a strong opinion either way. I have enjoyed more games than not this year, and quite honestly, that is better than most years. I have just learned over the years to temper my hopes when it comes to Clemson basketball.

Participation trophy much? I hope we sneak in, but if we don’t; we have no one to blame but ourselves. Crap schedule. I will admit teams sucking is out of our control. Losing to sucky teams is w/in our control. Getting crushed in the most important game of the year is so Brownell… but carry on.

If not .. I guess being the 69th+ team is better than we’ve been …. I just hope we get in. Don’t understand how NC State is a given and we’ve beaten them 3x ?

The Louisville loss falls squarely on Brownell. Didn’t have his team ready to play and he just stood by and watched us jack 3s when things got hard. Seen it too many times

You're right, but the current system is still ridiculous.***

You’ll have to forgive our players, they are not used to playing in front of 16,000 fans.

They play in front of less than half of that at most Clemson home games.

That may be the poorest excuse for an excuse I have ever seen. Even from you.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It’s a joke about our poor fan support, not an excuse.


Mar 12, 2023, 4:18 PM

The main reason we lost to Louisville is because they shot lights out and we shot horribly. It happens in basketball.

You’re being naive if you don’t think a loud home environment can make a difference though.

A loud home environment is why it is called a home field advantage. I understand that very well. I’ve said all year it is tough to win on the road in the ACC. Still sounds like a weak excuse to me.

Option - Make the tournament and also change coach.

Mar 12, 2023, 2:42 PM

Just because we make tournament does not make Brad a coach that is our future. He has had 13 opportunities.

And maybe, just maybe, if we make tourney, the players deserve the credit, not the coach.

The players make plays. But who puts them in position to make the plays? Who runs the practices and off season program to get them prepared? That's the problem with you people. You just cannot admit Brad Brownell can coach. Just blows my mind.

It's so frustrating, this pattern for Brad. We have horrible results for 3 - 4 years in a row, AD gives Brad 1 more year, and we put out a decent season. Now AD, gives him 4 more years of safety. Pattern repeats.

He is a horrible coach. If team does well, give the credit to the players. His coaching is NOT the reason for any success. Recruiting is horrible too. Just ask the mass of players that transfer what his coaching is like.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

We were horrible the 3-4 years before this one?


Mar 12, 2023, 3:22 PM

You mean like two seasons ago, when we had a program record for most NCAA Tournament teams beaten in a season, and made the NCAA Tournament?

That was horrible to you?

23 wins and a fourth-place finish in the ACC do not get you fired. This is a good team. One of the best ever at Clemson. If the Lunatic Fringe gets its way, Clemson basketball will be starting over at ground zero.
