He was fiery and smart. Flight for his players. Got people to play above their talent level. Fight for him. All the things brownell is not.

I'm not arguing that he is not better than Brownell (he is), but he has more first-round exits than I can count. I guess he's been gone from Clemson for so long that it doesn't bother me that he has these "elite" teams that usually amount to not much.

His teams usually don't amount to much in the NCAAT, I mean.

I do think he's a better coach than Brownell (not even arguable, really). But, he was also at Clemson and didn't win any conference championships, conference tournaments, etc.

No, but he had 4 post season appearances in 4 years before left and had a better winning % here than Brad does.. and Brad has the advantage of a pathetic ACC with almost every legendary coach gone.

Can't argue with that. Definitely a different ACC now.

Indeed.
If Brownell as the most tenured coach in the ACC (I believe) can't win it... he needs to move on

Tennessee basketball was nothing before Barnes got there, the excuse afforded to Brownell.

took a bad 1st round exit the very next season and bounced to Texas for a 50K raise, disparaging the town and state on the way out
