Bill OBrien lashes out

On reporter for bringing up BC’s 1-8 record after losing to ND.
Coaches with no answers for the problems, and losing records lash out.

I'm not trying to defend O'Brien but, to be fair, they have had a lot of injuries. That said, I'm not sure their record would be that different. The losses would've been closer though.

Moral victories are important. A friend of mine who roots for the team in Columbia told me so.

Did he say “all we do is win” or suggest that God must have a plan for their losing season?

No, he got mad pretty much only because the reporter asked a “down question” and O’Brien berated him. Hating that they misperceive his team as “down and given up”.

Very similar to the Dabo out lash about “Clemsoni*ng ” in 2015. TNET censored the actual word. Dabo was right about that one, but I just mean how Dabo made the reporter aware of asking negative questions is not to be taken lightly. It’s just a question though. One that he might have been told to ask.

In reality O’Brien is going to be fired. His team sucks. And he’s just taking his anger out elsewhere. It’s a valid question.

They should be better. Letting Tom O’Brien go to NC State was one of the worst things they could’ve done for their program.

Thats common when you fire a long standing coach with a proven track record of success at your school. You spend 20 years looking for the next “him” and only get further and further behind where you were.

That’s true. When they fired Danny Ford, it took a couple of decades to get back to national prominence.

God has a plan for everything and He also has a knack for taking that which was meant for our harm and using it for good. Not sure why anyone would want to be so flippant about that, particularly someone who claims to be a Christian.

I didn't see anything wrong with his response.... It's a fair question but O' Brien showed some life in his response and basically called out the reporter for being a bum who shows up 1 time a month and asks nothing but negative questions.

Reporters like that would be banned from Clemson press conferences.***

@Clemfan

So the last time they did this their record was what? 1-4? 1-5?
Yeah just checking in a month after, oh you still have one win? 8 losses now? BC fans obviously unhappy. The ones who actually care. People want some answers.

They suck dude. What kind of question did he expect? It’s like the question astonished him.

That is definitely what would be a “technical” lash out

Anger built working from sucking and being 1-8, and he releases on the reporter because he asked about BC sucking. Lash “out”

So if it hurts a reporter's feelings, that's lashing out. Got it.

Dumpster fire? They played Mich State, Stanford & Cal close. Lost by 2 TDs to Louisville & ND. Got trounced by Piit and Clemson. I'm not going to call that a dumpster fire. I think all of those teams were expected to win. Winning is hard. Half the teams will lose every week

It’s BC. They’re the type of school that tries things like this. Taking risks.
