Close losses to UNC, 2-74 lost 61-60 -- 1-75 lost 74-72

both of those games at UNC. I know both Clemson should have won but one of those was really an ACC/REF take away from Clemson. Can anyone find a write up on those two games. I've searched but can't find a write up
1974 team had players like
Van Gregg,
Wayne Croft,
Tree Rollins,
Jeff Resinger (big time JUCO that Clemson got)
to name a few of those players
but the 1975 team was one of my favorite as far as players go and who also got the shaft at Chapel Hell.
1975 team had players like
Van Gregg,
Wayne Croft,
Tree Rollins
Skip Wise
Stan Rome
Colon Abraham
Jo Jo Bethea
I'm sure they got the shaft pretty bad that year also.
If anyone can find a write up on those two game please post it.
Thanks

So true,
I think Van Gregg was pretty good guard and he was one of the 1st to wear that long hair down to about his shoulders
I remember seeing him make a shot from beyond half court just before the half one night when the Clemson Fr. was playing the USC fr.
I think that is right, when freshman could not play on the varsity. That change a year or so later if I remember correctly.

where dean put in an enforcer type guy who broke Terrell Suit's jaw. He had it wired together and played the rest of the season. Shockingly the refs missed the foul. (sarcasm)

I had forgotten all about that but I do remember it. It was during Tates Locke days there I'm sure.
You remember back in those days I recall players saying how Smith would cuss them and talk to them on the way to the dressing room if they were having a good game or winning the game at the half.
Nothing was ever done about Smith.
Barnes got in his face I think at the ACC tournament because of Smith talking trash to one of the Clemson players while on the court, if I remember correctly.
The next year the ACC/REFs sent Barnes a clear message by fouling out all the Clemson players and Clemson finished with only 4 players on the court.
It's so obvious how the ACC helps UNC to continue this streak.

Coaches face off as UNC, Clemson fight to the finish ACC TOURNAMENT
March 11, 1995|By Don Markus | Don Markus,Sun Staff Writer
GREENSBORO, N.C. -- The nasty words exchanged between North Carolina and Clemson during the regular season spilled over into their ACC tournament quarterfinal last night at the Greensboro Coliseum.
It led to a heated sideline exchange between coaches Dean Smith and Rick Barnes and into a near-brawl between the teams at the end of the Tar Heels' 78-62 victory.
The fireworks started with 3:10 left and North Carolina comfortably ahead. After Jerry Stackhouse was fouled by Clemson's Iker Iturbe going in for a layup, Smith pointed at the Tigers center and appear to yell something at him.
That led to Barnes' charging down the sideline at Smith. The two coaches were separated by officials.
"I said to the ref: 'I want you to bring him down here. I want you to hear what I'm going to say to him.' I told him, 'You coach your team and I'll coach my team,' " said Barnes, who wound up getting a technical foul. "I said, 'You don't have any right talking to my players.' "
Said Smith: "Where I was wrong was to point a finger at a player. I've done that three times in my career, but in each instance, I don't want my player getting hurt because of a hard foul."
Smith said that he noticed in watching tape of Clemson that Iturbe had what the Tar Heels coach thought was a propensity to commit hard fouls. Though one writer tried to get Smith to call Iturbe a "dirty" player, Smith said that he played "like a European player."
Said Stackhouse: "Things got a little heated. Those things happen. I don't think it was anything personal. Just some things got out of hand."
But the verbal jousting and finger-pointing between Smith and Barnes only served as the undercard for the players. What had happened during the regular season, when Smith had questioned the aggressive style Barnes had brought from Providence, only fueled the situation last night.
"I think it had an effect," said Smith.
With 1:44 remaining, Stackhouse and Clemson guard Billy Harder struggled to gain control of a loose ball, with the Tar Heels forward forearming Harder to the ground. Stackhouse was called for a technical foul, which appeared to be a makeup for Smith's not getting called for one earlier.
Then, as time was ticking down, Donald Williams of North Carolina went for a game-ending lob dunk. He missed, but was shoved by Harder, who got into separate shouting matches with Williams and Tar Heels reserve Pat Sullivan before nearly getting into a fight with another reserve, Shammond Williams. Both teams came onto the floor before being separated by security.
"He just went up under me," said Williams.
Asked what he told Barnes after the game, Smith said, "I shook his hand and he shook mine."
In the interview afterward, Barnes asked with a smile, "Anybody want to talk about the game?"
% There were no takers.

During the North-South doubleheader. I believe Tates took the team off the floor with a couple minutes left in the game if I remember correctly.
