It's time for change and we need to demand it. I refuse to even watch another Clemson basketball game until Brad is gone.

So we keep this look? Support is only going to keep Brownell on board to hinder the progress of the this program even more than he has. With the buyout it is going to take a statement to get change.

Actually DRad's handling of Leggett suggests he responds directly to the loudest voices in the room so he kind of set the stage for this.

Ended up well for us but writing was on the wall and he didn't have the spine to act.
Brad will be the same way. Will have to be financially incented to change things.

2 sports turn a profit. We are treading water at best in one of them. If that isn't incentive, nothing is. D Rad likes money and more so spending it. Let's see if spending 3.5 mil to admit he was wrong is up his alley.

DRad had just stepped into the job the year before he fired Leggett. Leggett was a HOF Coach whom had won championships, and had been the face of Clemson Baseball for a long time in doing so. DRad laid down the law on what was expected and granted a one year pass considering all things. Brownell doesn't have all that going for him, his only leverage at this point is his buyout and after giving Brownell pretty much everything including a pass last year I am not so sure that is enough. It would take a major turnaround. A nice run in the ACC Tournament; resulting in an NCAA Tournament birth, followed by a major recruit to go along with the guys we are already bringing in for DRad to not pull the trigger, imo. At this point I'd be so pizzed money would not be an object. Especially when considering those empty seats are money themselves.

Yeh. We need fans with their heads up their arses, who sit there and watch sub par basketball and fill the stands for the NIT to get their coach an extension. If it wasn't for fans like me, who want to win, we'd still have Tommy Bowden.

My point is I demand the best in every sport, not just football. Our fan base wasn't going to be happy with another average year in football in 08'. Why should our expectations be different in basketball? The truth is the fans just don't really care.

I can not be happy, and still support the team.
I can communicate my displeasure like an adult, and not turn my back on the players.

Wrong approach. Think about what JB gave to this university by coming back this year. You want to boycott a guy like that? The players will always have my support.

Glad he came back. His defensive numbers are tradgic this year though. Late to the boundary on the final shot even though coach was screaming for him to be in position on the outlet pass.

Lol. Sayin unpopular things makes me a coot? Most of my ratings come from 14 after the UGA game for wanting to start Watson over Stoudt and wanting to get rid of brownell the last 4 years. I don't say Ned Flanders type crap like the rest of you on here to boost oulse, because I don't care.

He doesn't like and hasn't liked Brad for a long time. He's a bit too knowledgeable about Clemson football to be a coot and the posts that he gets TDs for aren't flaming, they are just unpopular.

A boycott is small-minded and against all the players
Feb 7, 2017, 11:06 PM

who chose to represent us. We are better than that. I will NEVER stop supporting my team in order to get a coach fired. Write emails and voice your concern, yes. To pull against or not support the team, NO! My best friends and my savior are there during the worst and best times. I need them during the worst times.
Some of you guys need to grow up. I think we need a coaching change in BB though I like Brownell as a person. There is a right and wrong why to show this.

My concern is that if we continue to show up for games and show interest that we will get BB another year and the next coach will have a deeper hole to crawl out of.

This post is completely inappropriate. There are many ways to express one's support or lack thereof for a Clemson coach or team without making it totally public for ANYONE to read - including current players and coaches, not to mention recruits. My belief is the worst thing in the world is fair weather fans - in fact now is the time the bball team needs fans the most! Let the folks who are paid very well - the AD, the President of the University, and the Board of Trustees - make coaching decisions. Fans should support and use other means to vent. I honestly never thought I would read about "boycotting" any team at Clemson.

I was there last night and it looked like a boycott
Feb 8, 2017, 7:15 AM
|
|
I went with a Syracuse alum and a Clemson alum handed us 2 tickets outside (thank you very much for our tickets in Section 140 row X if you are reading this). Maybe it helped I had on National Championship gear but I think this shows people don't want to be there already.
I don't like Brownell either and don't feel like he "fits" at Clemson the way Dabo and Monte do but right now he is our Basketball Coach and I support him and the team, as long as he is there.

I rode my motorcycle thru the Pisgah Forest today and had a blast carving up the curves, and guess what, I never even had one single thought of how crappy our BBall team is. I would suggest that the OP buy a bike, learn to ride it, and he will be amazed at how insignificant that a bunch of young men that can't play BBall and a coach that has no clue will become in his life.
Just trying to offer some options. One always has options.
BTW: I've basically boycotted CLEMSON BBall since 1 year after OP left. Too hard to watch.
BTW2: I'm still glad that Tommy Bowden was fired mid-season as it made the statement that mediocrity will not be tolerated.
BTW3: I loved and respected Jack L, but his time was past and he needed to resign. I'm glad he was let go. I still respect him.
BTW4: I will love to see BB be gone from CLEMSON. I think we can make a better choice.
