IMO jim larranaga is a solid coach. The haters here on tigernet clamor about him like he is an elite coach. He might be.

He has made the ncaa tournament 50% of the time at Miami. This year and last year have been very good years for them. The 3 years prior were all losing seasons. Obviously Miami had been more successful than Clemson over the last 12 years.

So here is my question. Would you find it acceptable for the head coach of Clemson basketball to make the tourney 50% of the time with a few terrible, losing seasons sprinkled into the mix?

I believe he took them to the final 4 which is beyond amazing. Yes 50% and a coach like him would be outstanding.

We've put up with less than 25% of the time for 13 years. Why don't you try and be serious.

Why don't you answer a question. Would you find that acceptable?

Martin took the coots to the final 4 more recently than that. Do you want to hire him? Didn’t think so.

He's not an elite coach. So where does that leave Brad since Larranaga is paid less yet is light years better?

Once again your question is asked and answered. Brad sucks. #Firebrad.

No

First losing season and Lunatic Fringe would want him fired. Would probably want to fire him after first loss at Clemson.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nope


Mar 25, 2023, 8:47 PM

I've seen no lunatic fringe of this sort, not even close. Way off, not even credible post.

Maybe fans who are satisfied with mediocrity are the lunatic fringe.

Sorry, but you're not getting away with it

the snide remark on "haters on tigernet". Who are they, what are you referring to. Are you talking about people who have said essentially, "enough mediocrity is enough"?

It was a MJ honest answer. Seeing the Tigers in the tourney every other year would be fun.

And yes, your evaluation is sound.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Absolutley not! We're Clemson!

We should expect our sports to be GREAT most years.

The question betrays the small thinking that keeps us mediocre.

"With all due respect, I don't want to be like those other programs. I want those other programs to want to be like us." ~Dabo, 2008

THAT is leadership thinking. THAT is what visionaries achieve. THAT is what we need.

You're still aiming way too low.
