So we renovated Littlejohn to go 13-10 through 23 games?

I'm looking at you DRad. Yes, you've done a great job on the football side but this kind of incompetence on the basketball side is embarrassing and must be dealt with. If something isn't done at the end of the season the problem extends to DRad as far as I'm concerned. Mediocrity in any sport should no longer be condoned at Clemson University.

Just curious, what has Drad done on the football side? In fact, he hasn't been forced to make a tough decision during his tenure.
I am not a fan of firing during the season but Brownell is not trending in a very good direction.

I like Brad but he is getting the job done. Surely there will a coaching change at the end of the season.

I did forget about that, good point. For the record, I love DRad. If the basketball season continues this way, he will have tough choices to make after the season.

I thought he would go down as the worst in my time, but Brad may take the honors.

Brownell is a significantly better coach than Shyatt and our teams under Brownell are much better than they were under Shyatt.

Cost Analysis says otherwise

Significantly? Stay away from the drugs buddy.
Dollar wise, Brad Brownell is a worse investment than Shyatt was. No one wants the Shyatt days again, but CBB is quickly approaching the worst coach in our basketball history.
Purnell had us competitive. Brad won a play-in game with Purnells players and then took us deep into the NIT years later. None of that says signficant over Shyatt.

Making the dance is the definition of success and failure. His statement that Shyatt did as much with less resources is accurate. Brownlee took Purnell's team and won a play-in-game. 1 appearance in 7 seasons. Shyatt had no appearance in 5 seasons. That's not a significantly different success rate (14% vs 0%)
Sure Brownlee has a much better overall winning percentage both in-conference and overall, but results are tournament appearances and his play-in-game win in his first year isn't really more of an accomplishment than Shyatt's 5 year drought.

D Rad has made 3 personnel decisions. Audra Smith was a bad hire. Brownell was a bad extension. Monte Lee ... jury is still out to see if he can outperform Leggett.

I agree just the new blood helped the baseball team last year. They were still bad in the field and the pitching was terrible but they fought hard.

Once a coach starts putting more of their energy into objects instead of players, they're done.
Crazy-### helmets don't win ballgames, coaching wins ballgames. And coaching loses ballgames.
