I know that the football team has a higher average GPA…

than the basketball team, but even more surprisingly, I’ve discovered that only 1 basketball player graduated in December. 18 football players graduated at that same time. So not only are the football players doing better on the field and in class, more of them are graduating? It pains me to say this, but is there anything basketball can hang its hat on at this point?

They have never lost a National Championship game in the Brownell era.

I thought our basketball players ended up graduating somewhere else.
And to answer your question: coach stability. That’s what we hang our hats on

The basketball team may have an argument for having the single most dedicated fan in Tigertown.

A winning record and a competitive team despite critical injuries this past season. In my memory, we have only won the ACC regular season once and have never won the tournament. Fans should want a championship team but since we have little history of success, should be proud of a winning team.

and you’d think that would translate to even higher GPAs. Something is not adding up here.

it out, but basketball players usually only stay here for 1 or 2 years. That makes it hard to graduate.

Well would you want the basketball team to play 1 game against the football team? Probably not as they would get the crap beat out of them with a Dabo coached squad. Just use the same amount of players, say 11 on each squad and the football team would win and then where or what would JK say then. Would take a Dabo coached bb team any day over BB coached team hands down.
I usually don’t respond to basketball stuff but am tired of the comments from a certain poster so I just had to say something today. Probably should have ignored it, but just couldn’t.

My only question would be can Brad take Dabo -- 1 on 1 ?
Dabo is on the web this week sinking one while heavily guarded

It is kinda bad when the football coach is better at basketball than the basketball coach.

My sources tell me that lack of hat-racks has been holding this program back.
So no, they do not yet have anything to hang their hats on. But apparently they are getting "football-like" investment from the university, which should include basic hat-racks.
[I imagine helmet racks are more expensive due to weight]
