Clemson basketball is currently returning 7% of offensive production from 2024-25.
Posters defend this by saying Brad is good at using the portal. The last 3 seasons have returned 50%, 60%, and 40% of production. Rick Barnes had more returning production in his first season with the Slab 5.

College basketball today is very comparable to college basketball in the 90's.
Since brownell has dug himself in such a deep hole, and next year is going to be so difficult, im sure you will be the first to congratulate brownell and team if we have a good year.

Our returning production is dropping 82% from what we returned last season. That was already in the NIL/Portal era. How did we average 50% returning over the last three seasons if 7% is the new normal? Why are we doing any recruiting out of hs if the team on the floor is going to be entirely transfers from here on out?

Jesus you are so dramatic. If you knew our roster, then this wouldn't be surprising. You thought myles foster had another year, so it is clear you dont follow this team closely.
We knew going into the year that we were losing 4 starters. Without any transfers, we would already be losing 70% of our production. Everyone knew we were already losing a lot.The transfers only represent 22% of our production with most of that coming from chauncey. I am glad chauncey is transferring. The only transfer IMO that will have a negative impact is del, and we could easily find a better transfer to replace him.
I know you aren't up to speed on the current landscape of college basketball.your posts are 100% negative about our team. You dint want hate is best for clemson basketball as long as brad is our coach.

And then they went out on national TV and put up 13 when it mattered against a program that doesn't matter.

And CBB's timing, as usual, was impeccable.

Exactly. Anything along the lines of “Brad’s definitely gonna have his work cut out for him” would be fine. Instead the give themselves away grinding their gears away why it’s the the normal state of affairs and, as always, plays in Brad’s favor.

How do you make a prediction when there is 1 kid on the team with any stats from the season that just finished? ONE
Why not ask people to make a prediction for the 28-29 season while we are at it.
We don't know who we will get from the TP, how the will gel, how CBB adjusts the system to fit that group of TP kids, how the freshmen mature. Just simply too many unknowns for ANYONE to really make a prediction.
But its funny to watch people demand one as though they are trying to keep receipts.

I’m just saying the same people said we would have a disastrous season (unmitigated disaster) this year. I agree that the returning production is less than disirable, but I’ll refrain from making predictions until I see what the team ends up looking like, after the portal commits.
If anything, It means Brad need to earn his pay.
The same people try to posture and whine every offseason. It’s predictable.
“Brad is DOA, Hall should transfer”- three years ago “Scheff sucks”- two years ago “No returning experience”-last year
The Tigernet remembers all. 🙂

If you interpret losing 93% of offensive production as a doomed, gloomy reality, that's you. It's not 7-percent's fault.
Me? I'm stoked. This team is going to struggle but many of us already believe CBB will figure out this portal thing, and this program will come back better than ever and finally win the diminished ACC.

[ in reply to Brad has already figured out the portal thing. ] |

Please! You are so delusional! Thank goodness Dabo doesn’t listen to Brad! 😄
Dabo has always stuck to his philosophy in the portal (using it sparingly and only to plug holes) and we’re returning more players than most teams in college football… the team is committed and players are loyal to Clemson.
Brad has lost his team due to his use of the portal… the catastrophic loss of players indicates to me that Brad doesn’t respect those players that are on a development path … the team has no loyalty to them … and now they have no loyalty to Brad since he just replaces those players every year.
It will take a change of coach to get player loyalty back into the basketball program. I’d be very surprised if we have a good year in basketball in 2025.

Hopefully, we can spend the necessary money to build a starting five from the portal and sprinkle in some high school recruits for depth. It won't be cheap.

Correct, I was happy with our regular season win totals and beating Duke. Seems weird that you feel the need to ask a fan of Clemson sports that
I was referring to our HS recruiting compared to Dukes and their ability to just fill 5* who leave with more 5*, which you'd agree we are not on the same level. But you knew that.

Yes, was nice win. We won at home.

Teams like Clemson win with developed players that function as a team.

Such bad comps. Do you really think before you post? Duke actually recruits high school players who push out others, or they go pro. When was the last time we brought in a true freshman group who performed well like Duke? Answer, Brownell does not.

UNC 45.5 Duke 11.5 (Coach K retired) NC State 35 UVA 25 Wake 25 GT 42 FSU 30 Miami 31 VT 13 BC 12 Syracuse 36 ND 2 (coaching change) Louisville 0 (coaching change) Pitt 28
Single digits correlates with coaching changes. Clemson has shown it has the resources to pull 2-3 meaningful contributors from the portal. He’s gonna need 5 this year. Did we double his NIL budget. We’re spending NIL money on recruits we aren’t playing. Is the administration giving him permission to have a bad season to develop the young talent? Or will there be another mass exodus next year.

How are you so confused by this? The more people we lose, the more NIL money we have freed up. We will not be paying NIL to chase Hunter, Zachary, Lahkin, Schef, etc.
My god you are bad at this.

Which scenario do you think we would have more NIL money to disperse amongst transfers? Lmao. You argue some of the dumbest bs.
1. A year where returning starters include Chase Hunter, the Schef, and chauncey, and dillon
2. A year where we are returning Dillon Hunter, and christian reeves?

I haven’t heard anything about his future. If he is able to come back you have to add 15% to your tally. Of the ~20% that is transferring out the only real loss is Del Jones; I’m not really lamenting the departures of Wiggins and Heidbreder

Doesn’t change the fact that they are leaving. Percentage is percentage. Other people trying to frame it is as the portal and current state of game. But Brad neglected developing recruits two years in a row to maximize results to protect his job. Understandable but has also left the team in a bad situation.

You play the long game, you get meaningful minutes and develop players. We don’t crow about winning games and finishing 3rd in league lay and 3/4 in conference tournament or losing in the first round of the ncaa to an inferior team. We build and develop. This “historical” year will f beating historically bad teams is “hysterical”.

But maximizing results each year IS the current state of the game. Can we compete in basketball recruiting? It might be that a school like Clemson has to rely on the portal to get guys who fit into a team. For example Duke has 4 5 stars in their 2025 recruiting class; how much did that cost in NIL? $10M, $15M? That’s who we’re trying to keep up with in our conference. 37% of our scoring this year came from Transfers; if JZ doesn’t come that number will prolly need to be double this year.
And yes I know McNeese doesn’t have those resources; we picked a bad night to have a bad half.

I know that he didn’t feel like any of them were worthy of significant playing time despite handling most of our schedule with ease. That reflects on development to me.

The title is “7%”. Not sure it could be less dramatic. And the content is facts. If you think stating those facts is dramatic then maybe you have concerns you are unwilling to address.

Sometimes you don't. Nothing wrong with it. Duke is starting 3 true frosh. Michigan started 5 true frosh oce. Who cares? Our old dudes left. We had one transfer that left that mattered. There is no story here. You should be happy with the talent we have coming in and the portal players we will get.

Well said. The Brownell defenders try and muddy this by spouting how man portal players left their teams last year. Those players left for various reasons- coaches leaving, upgrading, wanting to win, etc. we have none of that. Our issue is high school recruiting, development,and retention. Why did we not play our bench a lot of meaningful minutes this year? We won a lot of lopsided games against the cupcake schedule we had. They could have played, developed, and Been starters, valuable backups, role players. But nope, Brownell did not and now we will have a team of players who ran from their other schools for whatever reason. You pick up portal players to fill a role or gap - not to fill your starting team.

"Production" since the advent of NIL and the portal could be a year to year turnover , and in a lot of cases already is. As an old schooler , I hate it ....but Brad has shown that he can do the things with this new mechanism to win at a high level. Trust the process? Lol.
