There's no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people who ask questions.

Sounds like this is the coach Clemson needed to get to the next step. I am excited about Rock the'John... Need a really good crowd there like last year because recruis Nick Jacobs and Daniel Sapp will be there. Got to close the deal...

lol.. just means he isnt stupid

OP had 1, JUST 1, negative mark on his record.. postseason play. So naturally if you want to get on the good side of your fans what do you say?

assess his coaching ability right now is a little dumb. I have heard lots of good things about him, but until he proves it I will wait.

I think it's safe to say coach Brownell has picked up on


Oct 7, 2010, 8:00 PM

the fact that we are not a good shooting team.

has there ever been a Clemson basketball team that shot


Oct 7, 2010, 8:14 PM

the ball well, much less make field goals?

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

They've been few and far between.


Oct 7, 2010, 8:45 PM

Seems to me the answer to that ongoing problem is to recruit guys that can shoot but we can't seem to do it to save our lives. I hope that will change soon; at least Brownell recognizez it and very publicly and vocally acknowledges it. This is by far the biggest job he's ever had and you think we'd have better talent, but he said we don't shoot as well as the places he's been before. I take that as an indication that he will make fixing that a priority.

I would guess he has looked at enough film of us over the past 5 years to know that. So yes, thats a fare assessment....

Re: Brownell- sounds fine- just make sure....


Oct 7, 2010, 8:17 PM

....we don't slip back in the pack for years to get to the next level. That would be nice to see us build from where OP left. Tall order as I think Booker will be missed

OP got athletes in his system and few basketball players. OP did not coach high basketball IQ and thus we often played dumb. I hope Brownell teaches smart bball.

A few years ago we lost back to back games when we were up by 3 with just a few seconds left and Twice OP chose not to foul and Twice they hit a three pointer and we lost.

Yep -- But Brownell has a steep hill to climb. Whatever, OP DID take Clemson to consistent levels that we did not achieve before.

Consistently started hot and ended slumping...***
