In watching this board over time I think the attacks on JK demonstrate a lack of understanding about him as I can see where he is coming from. I understand that Clemson is ( and always will be ) a " football school". That being said it is amazing to me the percentage of CU fans that don't seem to understand that BASKETBALL IS A BIG D ..N DEAL !!! I know a lot of Clemson fans that despite basketball success dont even know when the basketball team is playing ? ! The idea that softball or baseball is even a bigger deal to them demonstrates their ignorance of the overall national importance of sports. Nationally basketball IS A BIG DEAL !These are the ones that are critical of Coach Brownell because they " hear" that we lost a game so they are critical but are so ignorant about the game they have no clue about any strategy at all. I love football during football season. I love basketball equally as well. For me personally I love watching football on TV but GOING to basketball more. You get the same Clemson experience at basketball games as football ( inside 9000 vs outside 80000). But of course they have no clue because they never go to basketball. At basketball you can park anywhere, EAT in any restaurant and pay REGULAR price at a hotel. Football is great but too much hassle !!. If you agree to pay $ 700 a night for a room for fb you desperately need a Dave Ramsey course no matter how much money you have.

Yup! As it turns out, 74 was an aberration which was followed by 2 of the worst teams in Clemson history, which led to the hiring of Charlie Pell and the big turnaround.

hopefully after 16 years Brownell is going to do that
He is the winningest coach in CU basketball history, won at the dean dome (twice), Sweet 16, Elite 8, NIT Semifinals and a tic under a 60% winning percentage. Graduates his players and has always represented our university with class.
Wondering why anyone can't be happy about our coach/program. Maybe it's a choice.

Basketball or Clemson fan support is not the issue with JK
JK has some good points about the BBall team but ruins the message by taking a passive aggressive commentary against football and Dabo.
One can not make themselves look better by putting others down. And that in a nutshell is the issue with too many JK posts.
Let Bball be bball and let football be football.
JK tries to promote some fictitious zero sum game that we as fans have to choose a side in how he references his points
Its irritating

To me, that means wanting us to have success in all of our endeavors, academically and athletically. It means giving our sports programs what they need, taking care of the coaches/staff who are loyal to Clemson, and holding them accountable with regard to their own respective advantages and disadvantages.
It bothers some people that I have a different standard for football than I do for basketball. That isn’t because I hate football or have some problem with Dabo. It’s because I think we have the potential to be a great program and have fallen short of it.
I have the same goals for basketball, but also realize that Clemson basketball hasn’t had the success football has historically. That doesn’t mean that I am okay with mediocrity, or don’t have high goals for the program, but it does mean that I have a healthy perspective and realize that getting to that pinnacle in basketball is a process (one which I think we are making great progress toward).

WE do have the potential to be a great football program. The problem is you don't give credit that Dabo helped us realize that greatness. Saying the greatest coach in Clemson football history has fallen short is the problem. Clemson has the odds stacked against them being in the ACC and also as a smaller University but somehow Dabo has been able to take the program to heights never seen before. He is not above criticism and will continue to be evaluated but considering his past and present success in a sport that is changing at break neck speed he deserves a ton of credit.
I don't know how long you have been a Clemson fan but you either did not live through the early 70's, 90's and 2000's or you have a very short memory or maybe you popped a champagne cork when Danny got fired. I lean towards the later.

He is the main reason why we became elite, won numerous ACC championships, made multiple playoff appearances, and won two national championships. Without his vision and leadership, that wouldn't have happened.
He did not do it alone, however, and that is the part that gets glossed over a lot. He has had fantastic support from the administration, university, and fan base. Without that, he would not have gotten us where he did. I know that doesn't coincide with the hero worship some of you have for him, with the idea that he did it all by himself. I know it makes for a great rags to riches story, little 'ol Clemson, backs against the wall, with no way out, saved by Dabo who bootstrapped it to make our program great. But that simply isn't accurate.
With that said, Dabo absolutely deserves a ton of credit. And based on what he has shown he is able to accomplish, and the high level support he has from Clemson, there is also an expectation that we are consistently one of the best football programs in the country. We have fallen well short of that the last four years. I find it incredibly frustrating since I feel that our decline was preventable, and Dabo's errors in judgment are the main reasons why that happened.
Thankfully, he seems to have recognized some of his errors regarding coaching hires, NIL, and the transfer portal. I am encouraged by the changes he has made recently, and hope that they will get us back where we belong - as one of the finest football programs in the country.

I do my best to be a “Clemson” fan which means I follow, pull for all of our athletic teams. That being said I have been more of a football fan but I pull for the basketball team and years ago when I lived closer I went to several of the games. Now I try to watch as many of the basketball games as I can on tv or on-line.

Its not the vocal support for Brad that causes the ire of most of this board. Its the trolling and abject disdain for those on TNet he views as enemies. He uses his obvious dislike for Dabo, propensity for passive aggressive drive-by style attacks and outright manufactured lies about FB as his proxy to "even the score" (aka zero sum game). How he hasn't been perm-banned for breaking site rules included racists posts is beyond me. Its a vicious cycle that only he cank break, if he has the desire to do so. Its my belief he has no such desire, he enjoys playing the villain role and has a very small cadre of misguided fans supporting his nonsense.

portraying me as the enemy, as someone who hates Dabo, or accusing me of harboring some jealousy or resentment for our football program.
I don't view anyone here as an enemy, but there are some misguided fans who take things too personally and look for reasons to be offended.

Yes, its everyone else's fault for what you post including threads clearly intended only to incite, divide and troll Tnet. You're providing the ammo, if you can't see that then we have reached an ad lapidem fallacy stage.
Those pointing out your trolling, hypocrisy, and outright lies is not perpetuating the issue as much as you want to blame shift...it's highlighting it.

The problem didn't start by you being "portrayed" as the enemy or as someone who hates Dabo. You made that choice. You hated the fact that Dabo had what you thought was unwarranted unconditional support and that a coach that you thought was doing a great job for our basketball team was dismissed and demeaned. And your response was to take jabs at Clemson football, Dabo, and football-focused Clemson fans whenever you could. Deny that all you want...it's like denying that the sky is blue. It's not even worth getting into it with you.
If you don't want to be vilified by people on here, YOU must change your approach to the board. I highly doubt you will, and that's fine with me, but stop pointing the finger at everyone else. You could have just supported BB without jabbing at football. No one attacks T_I_P for his updates on Men's Tennis because it doesn't come wrapped in indignation that people aren't paying enough to the sport he likes.

What you consider jabs at football I view as honest critiques.
3
Feb 28, 2025, 1:07 PM
|

For example:
-Dabo essentially ignoring the transfer portal for several years.
-Dabo speaking out against the transfer portal in a negative way.
-Dabo refusing to fully embrace NIL and use it in recruiting.
-Dabo speaking out against NIL in a negative way.
-Dabo hiring unqualified coaches for both position coaches and coordinators.
These decisions hurt our program significantly.
Dabo was given plenty of leash to make these decisions. I think most people here might have disagreed with them, but supported him since he has been so successful here and earned the right to run the program how he thought best. However, when he continued making these decisions and these comments, when things were clearly trending the wrong way with our program, it becomes frustrating.
Dabo is not immune to criticism, no matter how much that criticism bothers some of you.
Stop the hero worship if it's clouding your judgment. We all love Dabo, but it's possible to like and respect him while also being able to take inventory of the job he is doing and speak candidly about it. Resorting to personal attacks and continuing to reference how successful Dabo has been are simply ways of diverting from the reality that our football program has slipped.

Let's say someone is irritates you. Why would you click on a thread with the name of the person who irritates you in the subject line and then comment? If someone really finds JK irritating, why not scroll past meaning addition by subtraction? Like many of the old guard t-netters, JK makes you question your beliefs (as it pertains to sports) which makes them uncomfortable (the discomfort causes the irritation). Maybe worst of all, like passing a car wreck, they don't want to look but can't force themselves to look away.

Mr Internet bully and self appointed keeper of the order, I don’t bother to keep screen shots from two years ago. If you don’t like something posted, say so in the thread or report it. Otherwise get a life. An anonymous person holding a grudge against another anonymous person for years after the fact is both sad and creepy. Life is full of sad, evil and distasteful bits but only the lowest hang on to those as if they never miss-stepped. The rest of us work on improvement and move on knowing they can’t change others so their energy would be better directed inward

I knew that was coming. This is turning into a grind out, last word, type conversation.
Bottom line is you said “Like many of the old guard t-netters, JK makes you question your beliefs (as it pertains to sports) which makes them uncomfortable (the discomfort causes the irritation).”
I disagree. I think the issue is many have with him is different, and gave an example. Now the discussion is about disparaging my good memory, instead of sticking to the topic. I don’t blame you for wanting to distance yourself from the Grey Out posts though, might mean you actually have some compassion in you somewhere.
Have a good one.

It’s free to think anything you want but presenting your conclusions as fact because it fits your narrative is something different. Judging the level of compassion of someone you know nothing about because they don’t acknowledge some obscure post from two years ago is narcissistic.
Hope you have a good one as well!

It certainly makes you an enormous hypocrite no matter how empathetic you think you are. You are continuously jumping into debates and accusing one side of doing exactly what the other side is doing. And when called on it you ignore it altogether or simply deny it despite a plain sight evidence. The Bresee stuff isn’t even the most egregious of JK’s posts. There is no defensible position to support him other than pure ignorance of what he represents and you cannot claim that defense.

Seems like the arguments started way back when basketball was finally getting the needed investment. At that time football was really getting the investment with the new facilities and staff expansion. Thus, there was a legitimate complaint about Brownell lacking what was needed to succeed. At some point you have to recognize both programs are getting what’s available from the AD and each program needed to figure out the portal and NIL. Clearly Brownell embraced that landscape early and Dabo didn’t. It’s fair game to criticize the drop off that football has experienced because of the lack of roster depth. Dabo’s HS talent evals and internal coaching hires are where things really got this debate going in an unhealthy direction (in my opinion).

The attacks on JK are brought on by himself. He knows that. It's okay. He tries to get people's blood boiling.

Clemson has a ton of basketball fans.

The majority of us saw a coach out of his league for a decade plus and shared frustrations around his game flow coaching and lack of ability to close out the tight ones. We languished at a notch above mediocre, if you consider 1 game over .500 even that. That's been Brad's most consistent finish.
JK and the minion minds saw fit to throw our players under the bus instead of acknowledging that we were languishing, with occasional positive spikes timed with how hot Brad's seat was and contractual opening windows. They did this by whining about resources and financial support - that Brad could only attract losers to play for him because we weren't investing enough to get better players. Most fans saw talent, and we saw them perform well for nice stretches, only to wither against inferior talent down the stretch too often, either in-game or in-season. It was a maddening pattern. The poster you're trying to defend, and your own words above, see more fit to trash the Clemson fan for being too stupid to know awesome basketball when they see it.
From a resource standpoint, we're simply keeping up today as we always have. Everyone is spending more on athletics and we are doing the same. Proportionately we're pretty much in the same spot today as we were 15 years ago. Fortunately, the rules have changed to allow Brad to overcome the very high HS recruit turnover we experience, and subsequent less internal development, with instant availability transfers. He's always been heavy in the transfer area as that's the only way he could maintain enough players on the roster. Now they don't have to wait a year to play - yay for us.
Clemson basketball fans are ecstatic today. You know why? Because we know good basketball when we see it, and this is good basketball.
Go Tigers!

He doesn’t care for your empathy
He tries to tarnish Dabo Swinney’s reputation every day.
Dabo’s The greatest thing that’s ever happened to Clemson sports at least, maybe the University.
So, don’t forget how little he cares

That is true for our elite run from 2015-2020 as well as our decline from 2021-2024.
It is up to Dabo to add to his reputation in a positive way moving forward. He has everything he needs to do so. Hopefully it starts in 2025.

Our so called decline is way better then the seasons before we got Dabo. U don't expect the basketball team to win every game so stop expecting the football team to. Winning 10 games and the acc championship is a great year. We had 2 of the greats college qbs ever that took us to national championships. That's not going to alway happen no matter what Dabo does.

That’s weird because didn’t you stick with Brownell in that stretch between 2011-2016 when when we were basically a .500 team?
I hope you’re smart enough to understand my logic here
I’m assuming you defended Brad during all of those times.
My logic is, wouldn’t it make sense to stick with a national championship coach going through “a decline” more than it would make sense to defend a coach who had no previous success to show us anything?
Not a decline obviously as well.
We’re still relevant and playing for championships. However you want to say it happened, this is how football has always happened. Yeah Clemson got some luck, but that’s always happened.
Point being, why not defend one coach during the tough times like you did for the other?
Im kind of picking you apart on here. Exposing you.
You’re going to have to explain this one

You have no basis to suggest that I am not.
Unlike the many people here who have posted hundreds if not thousands of times calling for Brad to be fired or hoping he chooses to leave, I have been consistent in saying that I want Dabo as our coach. I have not called for his firing nor do I want him to leave.
I want Dabo to remain our head coach for a long time. I’ve said it repeatedly. I just want him to do a better job than he has the last 4-5 years. That isn’t a lot to ask for what he is paid and the many resources and advantages he has.

So JK is having Brad's baby . . does that mean you're having JK's baby? Does that make Brad the grandfather of your baby? cousin? Sibling? I'm confused.

About Bryon B sister.
About women’s softball
And not just once, repeated attacks and passive aggressive jabs at football in general, but mostly at Dabo.

Being a lifelong multigenerational alumnis with alumni products that believe Clemson football is the only football that can be watched; Still every Tuesday, Thursday, sat afternoon, etc Clemson basketball game played that the radio was on and the football people that gathered listened to that radio and, thru play by play and color commentators, saw every pass, every foul, every heated conversation between coach and ref and on and it was felt and we cheered the same as football.
Watching on TV became even more unnerving. Seeing is believing so if you ever saw referees treat a team past the point of bad calls and with disrespect then you were watching a Clemson ball game.
Jk moniker had a chubby for bb and that is fine but he started trash talking the football program. Specifically coaching and what he was saying was nonsense. That's were I suspect some moved him from the troll world to almost the scok world and some have.
Reexamine that and look back at him post and replys.
