Who’s worse. Lee or brownell?


May 17, 2022, 7:13 PM

With basketball I gave up on it about 4 years ago… I have no expectations and understand that no matter how many failures he has this fan base protects him.

With baseball it’s a different story. I feel like we should have expectations and we do have great tradition.

Let’s be honest here. Lee is terrible. I want a change NOW!

Agreed. It is time for Lee to go. I love Clemson baseball way too much to put up with this garbage.

Just checked some numbers and I don’t know how up to date they are but sounds about right. Clemson baseball has one 15 conference championships and Clemson basketball has one zero conference championships. I know it is a little like Apples and Oranges but my expectations for our baseball program are quite a bit higher than our basketball program. I am just not ready to accept what we are getting out of our baseball team the last few years.

One thing is evident--we need more consistency in both programs. Getting our hopes up only to have them dashed many times in a season is getting very tiring.

I would never want to offend anyone here but if we have “fans” or T Netters that love it when we play bad and get giddy at games like this then you are not a fan and please abstain from posting. I guess I am naive because I can’t believe Clemson fans love when we are losing just so they can complain. I know it sounds like I am being sarcastic but I am not trying to be.

You are right and not taken as sarcastic at all … unfortunately the “Goober” think that bc fans are upset with where our once very proud baseball program is that we are happy when we lose … the dumbest thing iv ever heard … Absolutely NO Clemson fan is happy with this program and we are allowed to express that , the real goober is the one that refuses to admit when there’s a problem

Are you happy with this baseball program under Monte Lee? If so you should have your Tnet membership revoked. I think Ckemson fans have been more than patient with this guy. It's not working. It's time for a change. It is also time for the ENTIRE staff to be released. No holdovers. A few stayed from Leggett and the results have not improved. Complete reset and move forward!!

Another poster stated Monte is a good one and will be around for at least a few years. Thinking I must be watching something different than some posters. Neither program is in good shape. Disappointing. Will still pull like heck for both but my expectations are not where they are with football, soccer or softball at this point.

Thats a hard one. College baseball recruiting is not a level playing field and has gotten that way towards the end if Bill’s tenure.
Basketball is different and deserves to be judged critically. I believe our AD has high expectations that CBB has proven he cannot meet. He has has long enough in my opinion and the “letter” was in response to the cry from supporters for a change. Even if next year is better CBB is not capable of taking us to where we should be. Don’t let our past in basketball be a ball and chain around the ankles of those who expect more in the future.

At what point during the Sweet 16 run 4 years ago did you give up on Brownell? This is a strange take, most fans were pretty excited at that point.

To your original post, Lee had the best player in college baseball and has never advanced in the tournament. It gets a little worse each year. I don’t believe at this point, that he will win, even if he brings in top tier talent.

I think that when Brownell has good enough players and they stay healthy, we put a good team on the court. We do not get great players often. Keeping them healthy is even harder. Then things stall. Its frustrating. I’m tired of it. But I still believe that he can win, and make some national noise. It is a much healthier program than he gets credit for.

Basketball has gotten a little better since the new facility. Baseball has gotten worse.

In my opinion, it’s not comparable.

Unfortunately, in basketball, we have already proven as a


May 18, 2022, 8:40 AM

University that we are perfectly willing to accept mediocrity, and have been for years. Brown-L is just the latest installation in fulfilling that willingness to fail.

Baseball is totally different. Up to recent times, we were committed to being a player on the National Stage, even if we had never brought home the ultimate prize. Multiple ACC Championships, Regional and Super Regional wins and College World Series appearances attest to this.

But, now, Clemson Baseball finds itself at a crossroads. The results of the last two seasons have not met our historical expectations, in any way. Due to Covid and its aftermath, Coach Lee kind of got a Hall Pass for last year, at least from some of us. No such excuses will fly this year.

If our newly minted AD does not force at least some staff changes after this season is over in baseball, then he is, by default, showing that we are now willing to accept that same mediocrity in baseball that has been the status quo in basketball. I don't buy that, and never will. But, to make the necessary changes in baseball, some feelings are going to get hurt. And, some money is going to have to get spent.

We should not have to accept that we are a "football school", and all our eggs are in that one basket. Other schools are successful in multiple "major" sports. We have some smart people at Clemson, and we need them to use those smarts and step up to solve these competitive issues. In basketball, and yes, now, in baseball. Because the sad truth is, we are no longer among the baseball elite. We are just another program. And, THAT is a sad admission for a Clemson alumnus to have to make.

Tough to say who is worse at their job, but college basketball is much more important to the university and the sports world in general than college baseball. College baseball almost doesn't matter in the big picture as far as cash flow and national recognization.
