I say Charles Barkley or Tanner Smith for Coach


Jan 22, 2019, 11:23 PM

Tanner Smith probably could get relatively cheap. He would jump at the opportunity. No experience as a Head Coach you say? So what. Neither did Dabo and he's doing pretty good.

Charles Barkley ? Name alone would have them flocking in to play for Clemson.

Why on earth should we try to get someone for cheap?

Trying to save money when it comes to basketball is the main reason why we have been horrible for the large majority of our basketball history. I don't have any delusions that Clemson will pay for a top coach, but we should have learned from our mistakes over the years in trying to hire assistants and mid-major head coaches, hoping that they can succeed at Clemson (and that they will remain at Clemson once they are).

Tanner Smith is barely an assistant coach, and Charles Barkley has never coached. Both are horrible candidates for Clemson basketball, should we find ourselves looking for a coach.

I am not sure HS kids have ever even seen Barkley play. Secondly, he has a great job now and does well financially. Finally, who knows if he can coach and motivate? He is where he needs to stay.

Agree. We have to be able to recruit better talent as top priority. Brownell is not that guy.

basketball. The only problem with up and comers like that is that they usually don't stay very long.
