that basketball players entering the portal were influenced by the plethora of negative comments from fans all season, including some on Tigernet?
A couple of transfers would have been sure starters on a team coming off an Elite 8 appearance. Yet, the overwhelming negativity against the coach throughout the season, and some even against individual players, was no doubt perceived by players as lack of support for the team.
I have said all along that we should support the team during the season and make any coaching decisions when it’s over. Personally, I think Brownell earned a couple more years despite the mid season slump. I think he redeemed himself, and we as Tiger faithful should have shown more patience and support.
Please be kind. I’m extremely sensitive.

That’s certainly possible. NIL could be the culprit. I guess we’ll know once we see where they land.

And he said he had not considered this until he just read your post. He is now considering transferring as well.

Somehow the avalanche of negativity for the past three months must have escaped his notice.

And this, everyone, is why we can rest easy knowing we have an elite Moderator roaming the T-Net jungle.

Well, I don’t know they’re just football fans. If they wear a paw, I support them no matter what sport they play, and they probably do too. They’re just frustrated at the program’s stagnation over the years.
But then we have a good team that reaches the Elite 8, yet they faced a storm of criticism getting there. I don’t know if the negativity is the principal reason, only that it could be a factor.

lol - it’s the basketball fans that aren’t happy with Brad. The diehard football, basketball casuals think an Elite 8 deserves a statue and a lifetime contract.
I consider myself to be equally both (football and basketball, my love for both is virtually equal) and I think Coach Brownell deserves an extension.

It's mission is to seek out and destroy Clemson basketball. Clemson is not supposed to be successful in basketball so it must be stopped at all costs!!!

We were lucky enough to attend the All in Ball. Met a lot of the football players. I begged them to stay off this board as a few bad apples and Monday morning quarterbacks would drive them crazy. I get some of the comments about Coach B. Also met him. Very nice man. The vitriol spewed here sometimes is so bad I rarely even post or even read the sight. I agree with you 100%

Do you consider the Stumpdown by a bad BC team in the ACCT part of a mid-season slump? How about losing 3 of the last 4 before the NCAAT -- does that get to use the mid-season slump excuse, also?
BBL's teams always slump mid and late season, losing embarrassing games to weak opponents.
Yes, we all enjoyed the run in the NCAAT, but a higher seeding (with the best Clemson ever? NOT) would have been expected most of the season.
Now to lose potential starters is disheartening.
