Graham Neff interview


Apr 14, 2022, 8:38 AM

I am meeting with new AD Graham Neff at 1 pm today. If you have any questions you want answered, list them here. Obviously, I'll try and hit on Brownell and Lee, but other topics as well.

I would like to know tangibly what is changing before the 2022-23 basketball season that is going to make us more competitive? Or, despite the current contract, is his commitment to Brownell actually longer than just this coming season?

I’d ask,

You’re entering this role in a time of unprecedented change in college athletics. Dabo has been vocal about the Wild West nature of NIL/transfer portal collateral damage to the academics, relationship building, and the college experience drawing both praise and criticism.

How do you view these, and have you been in touch with any of your other counterparts to discuss these challenges?

Any discussion with your other counterparts outside of the conference about these concerns? Do you think there’s any chance of concensus or common ground towards some kind of reform?

Is he aware our baseball program used to be EXTREMELY


Apr 14, 2022, 9:26 AM

good for long periods of time ?



And as a follow up:


The few years Clemson has been very competitive in men's varsity basketball, the Clemson Family supported it in great numbers. The proof is there. BUT - he has to BUILD IT, THEN we will come.

The question: Does he realize he has kept in place a delusion doorknob of a leader for this aforementioned program that has to be BUILT first ?



Thanks for working these questions in.

Since we punted basketball’s coaching move a year and he’s a first year AD even though he has been at Clemson since 2013 - please ask what his prior exposure was to basketball and baseball in his prior role? Does he feel he had enough before taking the AD role to have an opinion on each program or is he using his first year to evaluate them?

Can he bring up to the NCAA that NFL players can’t transfer at will to a new team until their contract is up. Why should college players be able to?

1) I would like to understand if the Alliance formed with the PAC and BIG is still in place and if so what impact will it have on scheduling. If no longer a thing what happened and what are we doing to keep the SeC from ruling the world?

2) What are the plans to increase seating for Softball as tickets are hard to find.

3) What is the timing for the additional basketball investment which should give CBB the tools needed to compete.

4) Has there been discussions to separate the ACCN from ESPN so we can buy access to ACC games without subscribing to some streaming service this supporting CNN and the Hallmark channel (among others)which i would never watch? Said differently can we get Amazon or AppleTV or Netflix to have a pay channel for ACC games?

E-ticket platform...can we change it please


Apr 14, 2022, 10:08 AM

The current e-ticketing platform via Paciolan is terrible when compared to other software platforms on the market. Is CUAD going to make it more user friendly and efficient? I've heard they are considering a new relationship with TicketMaster rather than Paciolan and Stubhub.

The operations of the current e-ticketing policy is frustrating to many fans who are not as tech savvy as young guys like Graham.

In the next few years, what would you like to see happen in terms of NIL and the transfer portal both at Clemson and for the NCAA as a whole?

Would you like to revert back to sitting out a year for transfers?

Re: Graham Neff interview


Apr 14, 2022, 7:10 PM

My opinion is if Brad does not make NCAA tournament next season he should go and we should hire an African American who is a great recruiter. Concerning Monte, if he completely slumps this year he should be replaced. If not if he does not get into a regional the next season he should go. I do appreciate the manner in which Clemson operates compared to most but sometimes you have to make change. When we make that change be prepared do your research snd know what you are doing. Dabo is a great example of knowing his future moves. Thanks for this opportunity.
