The only reason CBB will get 1 more year is...

His contract.
Some idiot believed he was worthy of being the 28th highest paid coach in the country and besides the fact that his base salary is $2.75 M, his ridiculous buyout is $5.18 M. Are you kidding me??.

He must have a great agent because the person who many refer to as the idiot that gave him the contract was DRad and the BOT’s. DRad is considered a genius when it comes to Dabo and hiring Monty Lee. Plus he deserves props for the Amanda Butler hire for women’s basketball. But many of you think he is an idiot when it comes to Coach B and men’s basketball. I would say DRad has done a great job in all sports with the resources available to him and the AD. Let’s face it most people see Clemson as a football school.
As far back as I can remember we have never made any long term major commitments to Men’s Basketball. We have hired some really good and some bad HC’s and updated LJ but as far as making a similar commitment to our basketball programs as we have for football has not happened. Not sure if it every will.
Clemson finally figured out it takes more than just hiring a big name HC and paying him well to build an elite football program. It takes a major commitment to the entire program down to the smallest detail. I think sometimes it’s the small details that closes the deal for a recruit. But first Clemson has to get a recruit’s attention before the coaches can really go after them. IMO men’s basketball at Clemson can be bland and boring. Not much to get top recruits attention. Firing Coach B might solve some issues but it’s not going to change the overall product at Clemson until we use a similar approach with basketball as we have with football. We need a young Dabo like HC with a vision to change the perception of men’s basketball. A HC who can bring energy, excitement and interest in the basketball program.
My point is just firing Coach B and hiring another HC is not going to change Clemson Basketball. I would like to know what others think and ideas you have about Men’s BB.

He won't be fired this year

he may see the writing on the wall for next year and pursue another job on his own. Clemson needs a coach; young, old, purple, green to establish a true identity, which is what Dabo has done. It is a culture change. It can be done, but it will take the right guy. Now, who that guy is? Sadly, I dont think it's Brad

So we keep him and buy him out next year

With next years salary included it would cost us roughly 3.6 million. Or 5.18 million for a clean break this year. Well, we do have the new ACC Network TV money kicking in.
Or, you wait until May 1 when his buyout drops to 850K.
I think he's back, but anything is possible, including him moving to another job

The buyout now is not that much. It’s probably less than $1.5M from what I have seen. It drops bellow a million next year as you mentioned...
