We have people on here who think we have no chance at the NIT unless we win out. 4-2 and a ACC tourney game or 2 and I believe we are in just because of SOS.

We have to start with a big win Tuesday against WF. WE can win these next 6 games folks. We atleast need to get 4 of them.

I agree...nobody has pumped Clemson to NCAAT more

than me. But at this point I believe they pretty much have to go 5-1 in these last six games.
It surprised me that Lunardi moved them back in, and I figured it would surprise TigerNet even more.

Lunardi is about like the hoops version of McShay and Mel. None of this is binding on the committee. Just some guy's sports blather

He knows more about basketball and how the committee views teams than any of us.

Lunardi has been consistently the most optimistic

with Clemson this season. Jerry Palm doesn't have Clemson in his bracket, or in his first four out.
Team Rankings projects Clemson needs 20 wins to have a greater than 50/50 shot at a bid. Do the math...Clemson can only get to 19 in the regular season.

Joe has lost his ever loving mind. This entire bracket and his selection process is one of the worse I have ever seen from anyone. It barely seems even legitimate.
Clemson is in and Wake is out but
Wake Forest 15-10, ACC 6-7 RPI 31, Ken Pom 32, out of the field
Clemson 13-11, ACC 3-9 RPI 56, Ken Pom 39, in the field
Michigan and Syracuse below 60 RPI not only in but receives byes. Yeah that is going to happen.
He has Gonza going to Salt Lake to play Weber. This can not happen since Weber is only 30 miles from SLC. Rules say Top 16 teams protected against playing an "AWAY" game of this nature.
Arizona wins 2 games this week and drops a line
FSU gets blown out at ND and proves they can't win outside Tally and moves up to a 2 seed.
No team has ever received an at-large bid more than 2 games below 500 in the conference. Clemson is 6 games below. Clemson would need to go 5-1 down the stretch to stay at just 2 games below 500
I can't find an example of a team winning 18 games and finished below 500 in the conference and with an RPI over 50 like Clemson ever making the tourney.
This is just an overall bad job. And that does not even go into the weird seeding and pairing that he has created.
Clemson's best win was over USC by 2 points who was missing their best All conference player. The next best win is over UNC By The Sea.
No one in their right mind can think a 13-11 team with a 3-9 record in conference, losers of 9 of the last 11 and an RPI of 56 is going anywhere near the NCAA.
This is just stupid click bait.
Joe must go.
