Brad Brownell now owns the longest NCAAT drought
Mar 25, 2016, 5:41 PM
|

by coach, in the ACC
With Gregory now fired at GT, Brownell has the longest drought of any ACC coach... 5 years and counting.
Since 2011, 5 ACC schools have not made an NCAAT appearance. Four of those schools have fired their head coach over that time period.
Clemson has not.

Brownell has pretty much said that being stuck in

the middle of the ACC is really pretty good in the grand scheme of things, and that we're in a good place, doing some good things, and there is positive momentum in the program. Seriously.

In 4-5 years those same schools will fire the coach they are about to hire. It is a never ending cycle because typically the coach is not the issue. How many coaches has GT fired since Bobby Cremins left the program? Guess Hewitt and Gregory forgot how to coach.

hewitt was the victim of his own success, that's why he got canned. And it's basketball, 4-5 years is plenty to recruit players, install a system, and make an NCAA tournament.
I mean, unless it's Clemson, because apparently it takes at least 7 years unless you're cliff Ellis, Rick Barnes, or Oliver Purnell.

Ellis was a cheater who can claim marginal success. Barnes was a very good coach who took off at first opportunity. OP cashed out when he saw progress was unsustainable.
BTW we finished middle pack this year which is pretty good given we had no home gym or facilities.

haha.... "pretty good"

who cares?
What does Clemson have to show for that "pretty good" year? Anything? NCAAT bid? NIT bid? ACCT win?
nada, nothing, zero
5 years in a row without NCAAT bid
2 total postseasons in 6 years
2 ACCT wins in 6 years
but hey... we're doing "pretty good"

not sure the point of that...
Mar 25, 2016, 8:56 PM

VPI - hired Buzz - clear progress
WF - hired Manning - going into 3rd year, and he'll be under pressure
BC - bad, and still bad
GT - fired Gregory
there is nothing you can point to, at this point, to say these schools made bad hires (minus possibly BC)
clearly the point is that there was an expectation that was not being met...
Clemson has made the postseason 2 times in 6 years, and no NCAAT appearance in 5 years. Other places clearly made a decision to move on, where we have not. It doesn't mean you'll make the best hire. It means you are not settling for mediocrity.

Now that we are losing Jaron Blossongame...

I think if we could could just come within 5 wins of this past season I say we should all be thrilled and give CBB an extension. Most coaches would do much worse I am sure. Luckily he makes up fir much of that with x's and o's. It's hard to get blindsided like that losing a player early. As an ACC coach, or college basketball coach in general, you don't expect any of your players not to stay 4 full years. They are student athletes. CBB has been through a lot.

He's good for about 4-5 more non productive years.
