What's sad is keeping a coach that lost at home in the NIT

1st round to a huge underdog. Let them enjoy their brief success, Frankie will land them on probation and we have our own dumpster fire to worry about

Why is that sad? They're stoked.

I wouldn't wear a Sweet 16 shirt, but I don't think it is that odd. Some of our fans were excited at the prospect of possibly winning the NIT before we lost inn the 1st round. The Sweet 16 is way better than winning the NIT. Some of our fans wanted us to hang a banner in LJ if we won the NIT.

If Clemson had won 2 NCAA games in Greenville and made

the Sweet Sixteen, we would be on cloud 9!
That's another thing that is bothersome - we get a chance for two NCAA games in Greenville and we came up short. Things were setup nicely for us. Dang!

Ummm... every sweet 16 team is selling Sweet 16 t-shirts. If you don't believe me, go on fanatics.com and see for yourself. We would sell them too if we made it. I don't really understand why this is sad?
It's really no different than selling bowl t-shirts, or even CFP shirts just for making the playoff (i.e. ohio st fans have CFP Fiesta Bowl t-shirts from this year and they didn't even score a single point).

Can't crack a joke on that one. But you can ask the question where all these gamecock fans at with the number of empty seats at their home games

Hey, its the only thing in the sports world they can hang their hats on. Pretty pathetic actually. Their baseball team is over ranked. Should be around 15 or so with their number of losses.

The same prestige as theirs !?!?!?!

Are you kidding?!?!?!
There was a time when $CU dominated the basketball rivalry, but over the last thirty five to forty years, Clemson has ABSOLUTELY OWNED $CU in basketball and it's really not even close.
This is $CU's first NCAA appearance in thirteen years, their first NCAA Tournament win in forty-four years, and their first Sweet Sixteen appearance in program history.
Clemson has three Sweet Sixteen appearance and one Elite Eight appearances.
ROFL...the same prestige as theirs indeed !!!!

No elite eights though, so we have that going for us.

I have seen it done in KY on several occasions.....people will buy them and in Carolinas case it's a pretty big deal.....and if we are ever to make it back to a Sweet 16, pretty sure we'd sell them too. Especially considering the majority of undergrads at Clemson right now weren't even born the last time we made a sweet 16

those women's final four shirts only go so far. Lord knows they haven't had any reason to celebrate around there lately.

Although at this rate hell will freeze over before we ever see a Sweet Sixteen again.

after everybody I know has dropped a paycheck or two on National Championship related stuff in the last 2 months.
We just skipped right over ACC Championship and Fiesta Bowl 31-0 Ohio State gear. That stuff barely exists. You think a Sweet Sixteen basketball shirt would be a hot seller? Doubtful.
