Oh lord. People jumping ship after a two point loss in overtime, on the road

Well, guess what, you can't jump back on the ship when we win again....
Go Tigers.

don't like. And I know it's only one game.
But to blow an 18 point lead and play so sloppy at the end is ridiculous. There's no denying that.

coaches have done a tremendous job with a lot of heart and proved the experts wrong. Supporters will support and spectators will come and go but these players give their all every game. Go Tigers!

in a game does not mean they are jumping ship or not true fans. It is part of what is usually a sports discussion. Some on here do go overboard after a loss and some go overboard blasting people if they say a coach or player cost us the game. Just because I do not think Brownell did a good job last night does not mean I am any less a supporter of the Tigers. I was a fan of Brownell but after the last few years i began to wonder if he was the man for the job and I will say I am surprised and very happy with the team this year and I hope it is a sign of good things to come and not a fluke season (like the USuC season last year). I would love for CBB to coach for years to come at Clemson because that will mean he has made us competitive.

what cost us the game, however, the incessant idiocy that comes out of some posters during a loss is ridiculous.
You mentioned going overboard, like jumping ship.

effort, the players certainly gave it their all and I'm sure they wanted to win the game as well.

People don’t have to agree with you. 18 point lead blown and have 21 turnovers doesn’t envoke confidence. If the men’s basketball team would like fans to believe more strongly, don’t choke. Because if you do, fans confidence will waiver. And that’s reality.
Don’t criticize some fans for having an opinion that doesn’t suit you. Fans get tired of believing and then getting disappointed time after time. How bout the team show them something they can get behind first that’s not paper thin.

News flash, winning on the road is tough in the best

conference in basketball, and this one loss doesn't negate the rest of the season that they've had.
What you've described is a fair weather fan, especially if your confidence waivers after one game in basketball (which is simply ridiculous).
I guess Villanova fans should have had less confidence after losing to St. John's at home, eh? UNC fans after losing to Wofford too.

I know. I was trying to tell everyone after we got beat down by UVA that the fans confidence in them was done, and we wouldn’t win another game.
If only the team & coach would listen to me a lose out like I tell them.
How’s your chickens doing by the way? They haz the confidence, or wat?

Bandwagon fan, please jump off and don’t get back on. We not only don’t need you, we don’t want you.
