Wow, Brownell must have really been trying.

Clemson asst Steve Smith knew the exact time it took to get from Clemson's arena to Zion's house—1 hour, 4 minutes—and is caught joking, telling a story about how had to pretend to Brad Brownell about not knowing the route/distance the first time they both went to see Zion there.

This would infer that even brownell didnt know what smith was up to.

Been a little worried with Merl Code’s involvement

Hopefully nothing to it. At least if we bid, it was DUKE that outbid us.
This is pretty foolhardy on everyone’s part, because hadn’t the story already started breaking by the time Zion signed?

"At least if we bid, it was DUKE that outbid us," if true, does not exonerate us. Two "wrongs" do not make a "right." Both parties would be guilty.

I meant that if this happened, at least we didn’t sign him, and that I was glad that Duke did
Not sure how that turned into two wrongs making a right. I will wait and see what the outcome is, as I wasn’t in the room. Which is why I said “”IF this is true.” I am a follow the rules type of guy, so you are way off base.

Right. 2 wrongs don't make a right. But where's the FIRST wrong? Does anyone really believe DUKE will ever be caught/punished/prosecuted for any wrong? They'll hammer Clemson - but never the Dukes of "King K."
UNC & Duke have a lifetime pass for any & all felonies, misdemeanors or violations of any kind.

Looks like Steve Smith might be out of a job in the very near future.
The Clemson Board of Trustees is meeting tomorrow to discuss coaching contracts, including Brownell's as well as basketball assistants. Sounds like a good time to discuss a healthy budget for Smith's replacement.

I’ve got news for ya. Anyone who gives out imaginary thumbs down and think it somehow affects someone’s life doesn’t have a set of balls to begin with. It takes a special kind of loser to give out pretend thumbs down when they get their panties wadded. I wouldn’t worry about it bro.

Talking and doing are two different things. Since Zion went to Duke, I doubt we ever gave him or any member of his family any money. To me, this is a non story.

The fact that our sub par basketball program

and its constituents are saying things to people that could possibly jeopardize the legitimacy of our football and its recruiting makes me sick. In regards to basketball coaches, Fire'em all fire 'em quick. I'm officially over this coaching staff lets go after Greg Buckner.

Sounds to me like he was trying use Clemson football as a “see we’re one of the major players too” type argument to sway Zion. Keep the football program’s name out of your mouth. Recruit on your own merits. If that’s not good enough, then step aside.

So the FBI wiretaps CLEMSON who has a non-relevant BBall program, but ignores doing the same for Duke, who is a perennial power in BBall? A huge rat in the woodpile, or maybe just someone who looks like a rat.

They’re just picking up the coaches he was talking to. Apparently Duke didn’t go through the same guy.

Well, it's obvious that we can no longer allow assistant basketball coaches to sit in with our football cheating strategy meetings.

what was going on and in fact, this assistant intentionally lied to BB to keep him in the dark.
