I'm waiting for someone to stick up for him and convince me that he should be our coach moving forward.

Brad is a good guy and he runs a clean program. That's all I could come up with.

And at least for now he is still our coach. If he’s wearing the paw, I’m rooting for him.

We have been ranked in the top 25 multiple weeks this year, which is a rarity for Clemson basketball.
We have a lot of good wins on our resume, and no bad losses.
We are still in a great position to have a good year and make the NCAA Tournament.
While the last few games have been frustrating, and have illuminated some concerns about our team, it's a long season and these losses don't keep us from reaching any of our goals for the season.
Brad has been a college basketball head coach for over 20 years. He's clearly been successful. I suggest that we all support the team and let the season play out before panicking and bashing the team.
There is a lot of basketball to be played.

You’re in for a battle if you say his Clemson career “has been a success.” Only to a few fringe cretins.

Yes, he is a small school coach: not a Power 5 one.

Why is it a rarity to be ranked in the top 25 given that CBB has been here 14yrs***

I’m glad we’re ranked. Unfortunately, we are unable to win games as a ranked team. Otherwise it was really neat.

You gotta be kidding me. Clemson and AD Neff need to find a TRUE Div. 1 assistant from another school, say Arizona, Kentucky, Kansas, and schools with winning traditions. to bring The Tigers to a perennial top 10 level. After 14 years of this "average" status employed by Bradley, the time has come for him to escorted out the door.

But last night was a bad loss. I don’t care about rankings and stats or someone’s definition of a “bad loss”. We were simply not competitive in that game. The young guys looked like they were hustling their tails off and the veterans were going through the motions and getting outplayed all night. That was a bad loss.

I think you mean mid-ranked earlier in the year.

If we make the tourney this year, then he should be our coach moving forward.
I understand you are emotional, but we are only about halfway through the season.
The goal i heard from the haters is make the tourney and wi. A couple of games. We are still on pace to make the tourney. Relax.

I've always thought the Purnell model makes the most sense for Clemson bball

It's the equivalent of GT's triple option.
He got the best athletes he could find and ran a hectic full court defense. When a few of those guys blossomed into good players we competed with UNC and Duke while never recruiting anywhere near their level. We will never recruit as well as UNC, Duke, et al. We must compete in other ways.
