"Defensive Woes Continue as Brownell Begs His Players to Get

on Board."
That is the headline from today's story in the Charleston Post and Courier. It seems Coach thinks his players are capable, they just aren't willing to do what he asks. Either way, it's not a good situation for a coach in his 7th year - supposedly his most talented team since his first team - and the team that the prior two seasons were sacrificed to build towards. NIT seems the best we can hope for at this point and enough for the AD to keep him on board another year or two. Will we be better next year with the incoming recruits and development of the existing players or will it be a bit of a rebuilding project?

If she writes that well at 17, she could be another Larry Williams by the time she's 20.

CBB is correct about some players not valuing possessions the way they chuck up 3s with little time expired on the clock. Its especially frustrating to see it done the last three minutes of games when down by just a couple of points and the other team shooting well.

what is the point of this continual Clemson bashing?
Jan 24, 2017, 2:27 PM

1. do you have a personal grudge against Brownell?
2. did you never grow up and still think every coach can have a winning season every year?
3. are you simply a frustrated ex-H.S. bench warmer who belittles coaches to make himself feel better?
4. do you read so little that you still think the P&C has any journalistic professionalism towards Clemson?
5. are you reasonably successful in business, and you're one of those who thinks your money gives you the right to have an opinion about anything, anywhere, and anybody?
6. are your reruns of Dumb & Dumber growing stale, but you've not been able to think of anything else to do?
whatever the reason, you need more help than the basketball team does....

but not this clown.
It's like Brownell hosed his sister but never called her back or something.
or maybe it was his mother -
that would explain some things...

INMATES running the asylum

This sort of headline leans toward giving some credibility to some other recent posts that the players are tuning Brownell out. This IS the best collection of players at Clemson in a long time, but it is not a very good TEAM. The element of chemistry is off and all the guys are looking to "be the man" on offense and hoping everybody picks up the defense. Comes down to a lack of leadership & team control, which I see as missing on both accounts.
