What's the big deal about making it to the NCAA tourny

If you don't win it?
Just saying, why judge your program on making the tournament? It means nothing if u don't go to the final four or win the whole thing.

Well it does bring some excitement along the way. Not sure there is an overwhelming amount of that at this point.

Right. But since we are not currently making it there, it should be our barometer.***

I didn't say he needs more time.

I'm willing to give him next year, in order to get one year in the new building. If we don't at least make the NCAAs, I think he needs to go.
As I've said before, I would support getting rid of him after this season if I knew Clemson wouldn't take the cheap way out with the hire.

I like your thinking, it makes me feel better for a second. Then reality hits, and the fact that we struggle to be a top 60 team is embarrassing. If this were MLB we would be a AA team with major league payroll.

It matters to recruits. Appearing in and giving Bama absolutely all they could handle has put our football program on an all new level.

Ok,let's just stop basketball,baseball and football after the regular season,no post season tournaments where even if you only have a snowball's chance in heck of winning, you play because it is a reward for having a great season. Clemson probably won't make the big dance,but since you don't think it's a big deal about making it,I guess you can watch the NBA.After all, about half of those teams go to post season play.
