Do not watch the ACC Tourney, Do not watch any NCAA….

Tourney games with ACC teams. The ACC'S cheating cost us a NCAA tourney bid. Clemson has done too much for this conference in the past few years. We as Clemson fans should not financially support a conference that has held back our basketball program numerous times during the years. Recently, Clemson played a key role in getting Notre Dame. When there was a possibility that the Big 12 was going to raid the ACC, Clemson by staying quiet on the subject eliminated that possibility. And we won an Orange Bowl, helping bring some much needed credibility to the ACC in football. Time for John Swofford's quick removal.

Your forgetting we gave up an open 3 to pitt. Then gave them back the ball and went to OT. Where we then came out flat. Sounds like we just melted down at the end.
Besides our losses to Auburn, ND and wake is what kept us out and that non ACC SOS of like 300.

You do realize that simply watching the games (games with

ACC teams) doesn't provide the ACC or any of it's entities any money. In the same respect, not watching those games will in no way affect the ACC either.

I don't know if the option was on the table or not, but if we could have left for another conference, we should have taken it. The ACC never has, and never will, do anything to better our sports programs. In basketball it downright hurts us sometimes.

and confirmed rumors of a faction at FSU that wanted to go to the Big 12. If there was any truth to the big 12 wanting to get some acc teams we should have jumped at it, and formed an alliance with FSU to convince other acc teams to jump ship and create a big 12 east.

I am appalled at the Clemson's AD rather demure comments. You are so right in what Clemson has done for the ACC and I agree they were "robbed" in both games. The major problem is officiating which is beyond horrible. Inexplicable behavior in inconsistent calls or non-calls, constant chatter between certain coaches (what is this a coffee clutch!) and finally the lack of ability to call the game at the end as it was being called the rest of the game.
I still believe that long term Clemson would have been better off to get out of this juvenile league and find a league where adults play!

I know you think life revolves around you, but it doesn't. The fact that your team pulled out of the ACC because of basketball should give you a clue, but apparently it doesn't.
