Not a peep. I think they are keeping it quite to aggravate the LF.

They post about it every week so apparently it is of great interest to them. Probably mentioned several times on their weekly group fax.

First, learn to spell or buy a dictionary. Quiet is a different word then quite.
Second, the LF are the ones who accept mediocrity. The majority want better than we have gotten for the past 13+ years.

Unfortunately, I do not take advise from the LF given your delusional nature.

The Lunatic Fringe wants a firing after every loss. The Lunatic Fringe refuses to enjoy winning basketball or give Coach BroWnell any credit for the solid program he has built at Clemson. Almost 50 victories in the past two seasons in the chaos of college basketball. Take a seat and be quiet. And in the future when you write Lunatic Fringe spell it out. Unless you are trying to hide your membership by typing LR.

mediocrity of the last 14+ years have labelled the ones of us that want Brownlee fired today - the Lunatic Fringe.
It is the vast majority of us who want him gone - but corncobber & his scoks have labelled us the Fringe - the Lunatic Fringe.
The 7 people (scoks included) that grovel at the feet of our doorknob leader are called the cult.
This is the correct vernacular - learn it and use it right . . . . or don't - I don't care.

The Elite 8 was good but his one year consecutive streak of making the NCAA tourney is not exactly the definition of a “solid program”. Get over yourself.

Don't know for sure but my best guess is 57 million/27 year contract. That seems like something we would do.

That sounds good, as long as there is a note in there saying something like if we want to get out at any point in the next 27 years we only owe $5 billion and the first born of all alumni.

No idea but if one were to guess

the fact that we hear nothing probably means:
A) No one else is extending a job offer to Brad Brownell
B) Our AD, like most of us, know that this season under Brad is the exception not the norm. Brad’s past performance indicates that the salary he receives is more than enough based off of his career at Clemson.
C) Because A and B are true there is no need to renegotiate Brad’s contract.
That’s just good business sense.
I could be wrong. We will see.

If you dig a little deeper you will see an uptick in results over the last four years which coincides with additional investment in the program.

He’s won 6 more games in the last 4 years than he won in his first 4 years. That’s 1.5 more wins per season than his first four years. Conveniently he’s playing 2 more conference games against a diluted ACC schedule. Average conference SRS (Sports Reference “simple rating system to compare teams and conferences across time) his first 4 years was 10.2 and the last was 9.5. So, if you dig deeper, you’ll see the uptick isn’t particularly profound.

I've said it before, if EYE were Nerf, I would just rollover BB's contract, lower the buyout, maybe add some incentives that would give him more money in the event of continued success next season. If he were not happy with that, I would tell him he is free to seek other opportunities.
The fact that we are hearing nothing could well mean all that has already taken place, and BB hasn't FOUND any of those opportunities, and is not happy about it, but doesn't know what to do about it.

Made a post season tournament in three of the last four years and won 20+ games in each of the last two years so yes, it is an uptick. Only a LF member with an agenda would say it is not an uptick.

Yes or no?

Why do you keep trying to link me to others? I was here first!
I personally feel and have always stated that the NIT clause in the contract is garbage. You apparently agree. At least you used to. Your inconsistency is pretty glaring.
Tough to remember all your crap posts? It’s ok. Kinda like all the other Clemson sports fans on here after a loss. Your words too .

Now that I see the reference you’re making (your obsession with me is also very reminiscent of one Mr. Mountaineer) it doesn’t point to any inconsistency. I quoted Brownell’s postseason wins, including the NIT, and made that remark only when prompted by another user. As usual, your zeal to play gotcha falls flat.

I would actually say your obsessions with one another were pretty apparent to the masses on here.
A better comparison might be to years 2-5 vs 1-4. Should year 1 count given it was pretty much Purnell’s squad? Pretty sure I heard that somewhere. Of course we should place and asterisk by those NIT wins too. Not where we should be aspiring to be. My opinion.
How do the losses compare? That’s part of the equation too.

The ole scock defense. A tried a true deflection I guess.
Only one account here. Hate to disappoint you. Carry on and keep picking and choosing what to report, regardless of your previous stances.
Always thought you and olemike (and/or Andy the Tiger) were one and the same too FWIW. Him ripping Clemson players and you thumbs upping him.

I asked a question so your reply is textbook deflection. Again, how were you aware of a specific word usage from March of 2023, that the search tool didn’t find, from a thread that you were not party too? If you’re not using a scock then you’re obsessively reading through my old posts. I’m flattered, but I don’t find you remotely interesting enough to reciprocate.

Google has all the answers. Maybe try your screen name and maybe “NIT”or “pumped” something. You’ve got like 20 years of posts. Im sure its difficult to remember all your rants. Happy to assist.

Brownell has 14 years of statistics to pick and choose from. Likewise, certain posters have YEARS of posts on here. They seem to show an inconsistency from year to year in what should be measured as the standard and what should not.

All but the fringe understands the early years with little support and crappy facilities. All but the LF brotherhood can see an uptick in performance the last few years which follows the increased support. Oddly enough, JK argued this would happen but was always shouted down by the delusional few. Wondering if I simply missed the banquet of crow?
