If you’ve been watching long enough

Tonight is no surprise
And it’s not unique to a single coach

Tiger basketball reality
Cheers

Indeed. I thought the poetic justice was going to reside in an NIT

finals loss to UNC.

But they chose not to play and Morehead just added to a long history of frustration.

Yea. Right there with you, brother.

In all honesty, had shyatt been given 13/14 years and all the support Brad's received, the records would have probably been the same.

Yep. Year after year after decade after decade after half century.

Yep. Learned a long time ago to enjoy the good games but don’t expect much. We admitted in the early 80s that we went to basketball games to watch the other teams. Saw Ralph Sampson, Len Bias and the NC team that had Jordan, Worthy, and Perkins on it.

The only time I saw him was at a Citadel basketball camp in either 77 or 78. He broke the backboard on a dunk during an exhibition game. We were sitting courtside and one of my HS teammates got a piece of the glass. This was way before anyone heard of Darryl Dawkins.

He the worst coach back through Foster at losing to low RPI teams. It isn’t normal and we need to stop accepting it.

Our basketball history had nothing to do with this game.

Maybe if our AD would make better decisions…

But this game just adds to our basketball history.

Looks like every tiger basketball team I’ve send with the exception of a handful of overachieving years.

Its easy to get used to this when your coach has...

been there for nearly 1 1/2 decades.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Thats a BS excuse for losing to a team you shouldn't

Mar 15, 2023, 10:05 PM

Please raise your expectations or find another BB team to support.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No dude

2

Mar 15, 2023, 11:06 PM

I’ve raised my expectations many times over 30 years
My expectations don’t change this program
And this program is not defined by Brownell

The idea that this is about MY expectations is comical
I’m not on the BOT and I’m not some big iptay donor

I’m a grad
And what I’ve seen this year is no different than what I saw from Shyatt, Purnell, or Barnes
Some did better than others, but it’s really been the same thing since forever

The team didn’t lose bc my expectations
This program being historically mediocre is not an excuse for tonight
It’s a reality

I made a post very similar a few days ago.


Mar 15, 2023, 11:16 PM

Brad's time may be up, but everything else will be just as it has always been since I became a fan.

Dude we have wasted 7 years on a sh!t coach...

Why do you think we continue to be a crap program? We settle for this garbage. And Purnell's teams were NOTHING like Brownell's. I went to every game and if you think 3 NCAA Tournament teams in 3 years is the same as 3 in 13 years then you just aren't very educated.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I loved OP.. Three tournaments, zero wins

2

Mar 17, 2023, 2:34 PM

Mediocrity

His teams were fun to watch, but our athletes couldn’t beat other teams well coached basketball players
And if OP thought his team and program were in such good shape, why run out in the middle of the night to go to a crappy DePaul team?

You may have ENJOYED OP better than BB, just like I enjoyed Barnes, but in big picture the results are the same.
Detach your personal and emotional experience and you’ll see it.

Soywaker is right! This nonsense has gone on for decades, but we can't stop searching the desert after forty years. We will find the right guy, or gal, and have a real Coach that can make Clemson relevant in BBall.

Lol, ok. You've just made quite an ### of yourself

Mar 17, 2023, 3:01 PM [ in reply to Dude we have wasted 7 years on a sh!t coach... ]

as usual 🤡

OP's teams were the same brand of ragtag basketball, consistent with every other coach and decade.

Oh yea, and he pulled a Jimbo fisher, just didn't leave the Christmas tree...

You just aren't objective or intelligent.
