Negative incidents do occur but they are rare with fromer and present Clemson student athletes who get in trouble. Usually if they are current student athletes and they cannot conform to the Clemson way of doing things these people usually do not stay at Clemson very long. Student athletes from Clemson have represented the university well with a lot of class, integrity and character. Many of them are very successful in life after Clemson.

If you compare Clemson’s student athletes to most other Power 5 schools we should be proud of how they represent the University. IMO they have been some of the best Ambassadors representing their school compared to most other schools. So many give back to their community and have been generous with donations to Clemson.

IMO it is a reflection of the culture created by the Clemson University Athletic Department, The President and BOT’s. One of the most important contributors that makes Clemson so great are the Fans. We have the best Fans in college Athletics. Our fans represent Class, integrity, honesty and love for one another as well as Clemson University.

I am proud to be a part of the such awesome college Athletics and The Clemson Family.

Judge are you serious right now? I somewhat supported most of what you said defending our team during the season. However, as pointed out by others in the past, why do you feel the need to jab at the fb team to defend the bb team? Please, please give me my first ever TD for a valid question. I am just hoping, praying even, that you are trolling.

She's just sore that Brad and Dabo started at the same time at the same pay and Dabo transformed his gig into reaching the pinnacle of his profession and sending the football program soaring to the mountaintop, while Brad has strung Clemson along, flopping at critical junctures, and producing a middling resume that is the envy of no one.

Unlike you and many of the other football first fans


Aug 3, 2021, 12:28 PM

I don't compare the two sports.

As I'm sure you know, football has been Clemson's sports crown jewel for most of its history, with administrative support, fan support, and financial support to show for it.

In contrast, basketball has been Clemson's red-headed stepchild, with only marginal administrative support, inconsistent fan support, and even more inconsistent financial support.

I won't bore you with the numbers, since I'm sure you have seen them when they have been posted previously, but under Brownell we consistently overachieve relative to the investment made by Clemson's administration and fans - despite our poor basketball history.

When Clemson basketball gets anything close to the support Clemson football gets, I'm happy to compare resumes. Until then, I will feel good about our success. I'll admit it's nice not to get blown out in the postseason.

Nothing about this basketball team should be considered an over achievement. That's beyond ridiculous.

And you "don't compare the two sports" yet that's exactly and specifically what you did when you posted this thread.

Nobody is stupid enough to believe you. You were blatantly comparing, whether you mention it explicitly or not. It's what you do and it doesn't create anything positive for the basketball program.

Despite me not mentioning football anywhere in my post, which was posted to the basketball forum by the way, and then reassuring you that it wasn't about our football program, you're still telling me that my post was about football?

does.


The funny things are -

1. There are 25 immediate players & staff & support on the basketball team (I'm SURE Judge Keller® will blow me up when this number is off by 1 or 10 folks) and the football deal is 250 folks - managers, players, support staff, walk-ons, etc, etc) . . . so there is a 10 times higher likelihood of lots of things happening when comparing the 2 - somebody being diagnosed with cancer, somebody winning the lottery, or somebody doing something stupid that turns into a chance to tear down what Dabo & Clemson have built.


2. Your STUPID, SOPHOMORIC, troll will turn into a huge mountain of crow if an 18 to 22 year old that is associated with the basketball program does something stupid. Don't put anything of value on this REALLY shaky ground you are building on.

Aug 3, 2021, 12:32 PM

to manage.

Thankfully, he has a huge team of assistant coaches, managers, trainers, and other support staff to help him manage the players he recruited.

My post wasn't a criticism of Dabo at all, but rather an acknowledgement of what a clean program Brownell runs. I'm sorry that it triggered a defense of Dabo from you and others.

This isn't a competition - we should support all of our Clemson programs, because they represent Clemson.

Your timing, Judge.

Let the Fred Davis story get cold before you post this, and I’ll agree with you.

Dabo’s guys average one negative incident per year, or less, plus the follow-up stories. So the football team is in the news negatively only a handful of times, but you ran this thread during one of those times, and claim you’re not knocking the football team.
