Prepping for a long tourney run...

Mar 15, 2025, 3:23 PM

Louisville has been Clemson's kryptonite this year. The loss was hard and there were some extremely questionable calls or shall I say no calls . It's ok Clemson will use this as fuel to the fire and will go to the tourney pissed and ready to overachieve. I like Clemson's chances to go to at least the great 8. That's my 2 cents. How you all feel about that?

I just dont see it this year.

I hope I’m wrong of course, but Dillon Hunter is a big loss. We miss his defense, athleticism, and intangibles. While Jones and Heidbreder are certainly good and capable players, they are being asked to do more than they are accustomed.

I am also concerned about our poor outside shooting lately. We MUST get our mojo back from three.

Don’t get me wrong, we are absolutely capable of making a deep run this year, but I don’t feel nearly as good about it as I did a couple of weeks ago.

The outside shooting is what makes me far less optimistic then I was 2/3 weeks ago.

Wiggins/Jones/Heidbreder.

Mar 15, 2025, 5:49 PM [ in reply to I just dont see it this year. ]

Jones was 1-7 in the tourney games.
Heidbreder was 3-11.
Wiggins was 3-11.

They have to give us something from a scoring perspective…at least one of them…for this team to go far and to make up for their turnovers and any defensive issues.
I’m glad Wiggins finally hit a 3 towards the end last night. Really need him to hit double digits, I think.

I think all year this team has had great depth…but I do think we need everyone to make a run. We’re just not the same when a player is missing.
