Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.

Maybe not the best, but Willie Nelson. I was working at the old Ramada Inn where Willie was staying. He had shaved his head into a buzz cut. He came down and sat in the lobby. No one recognized him. He also, wouldn’t leave for LittleJohn from the hotel until he was paid.

I didn't see Eagles at Clemson. But, I did see them at the Bi-Lo Center. They were the best concert I have ever attended. Honorable mentions of live bands elsewhere: Bon Jovi, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Duran Duran (yeah, I said it). I judge a live band based on how closely they sound like their recording, whether they do it the same way or perform a different arrangement.

If we are talking strictly Death Valley/Clemson, The Rolling Stones were great! I vaguely remember Chicago and The Beach Boys at DKS. We were outside in the soccer practice field. There was a couple of kegs involved.

Loved Jethro Tull, but they were like two hours late. The Allman Brothers (one of Duane's last concerts) were great. Rolling Stones at the Stadium was the best.
