Clemon Basketball beats Cal. The game was last night
Tigernet places the "article" link 7th on TNets home page for the app.
Behind or after older stories of a former DL or a DB signing with another school, and ESPN's ranking of all time true freshmen.
For all who think Clemson fans and the Community truly supports basketball, just remember to put it in perspective of priorities.
#1 Clemson football #2 Clemson football NIL resigning #3 Clemson football portal #4 Clemson football recruiting #5 Clemson baseball (close to season opening and during season) #6 Clemson basketball
Clemson basketball deserves more attention and highlights, but sites and publications provide to readers and fans what they want most.

I don’t disagree with you, but the real issue is that you and a few others don’t like football enough. Will posting stuff like this really help?

Clemson basketball "deserves" more attention? Lol.
Clemson fans aren't required to care about basketball the same way they do about football, or baseball, etc....
This fan, and most of the Clemson fans I know count basketball as the 3rd, or even 4th most cared about men's sport at Clemson. It is what it is.

I’m a football guy, but I do agree this should be higher priority than former football players who chose NOT to play for Clemson anymore. Best of luck to them but a basketball story should be higher priority.

Baseball just seems more popular on T-net due to the demographics of this site. The average baseball fan is older, white and often sedentary.

Facts aren’t racist. They are only called racist by those who disagree because it does not match their views. FWIW, I looked it up so it’s not an opinion

The #1 fact in comparing fan interest in baseball versus basketball is our baseball program's several decades long storied past compared to basketball. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, racist.

Found another one who can’t handle the facts. BTW baseball has declined in popularity for the past 20 years an the younger generation will not sit in one spot for 3-4 hours while teams seem to make the game go as slow as possible

Yet way more Clemson fans and students watch Clemson basketball in comparison to college baseball. College baseball is growing, but it's stil way behind men's college basketball. It's probably behind women's hoops.

Once they can finally win a Championship of some sort then they probably will. It’s not like these basketball schools started all with full support and attention to basketball. They became good first then came the fan following.
If we continue to consistently go deep in post season and finally bring home some sort of hardware the fan support will come.

Lol. This is t-net. Take it with a grain of salt. If Clemson didn't care about basketball it wouldn't have around 8000 fans in both these games with students not fully back yet against two California teams that don't turn the needle.
More people are going to talk football year around because it is the 800 lb gorilla.
Haven't really seen much talk about baseball on t-net except looking forward to the season.
Basketball is very big and once the program can consistently get to the NCAAT it will get bigger and bigger.

You’re dang right! It’s an absolute joke but TBH Tigernet has always been a reporting joke. This site is only good for the message boards and half of the regulars there don’t even know sports….they don’t get game times right on their schedules and they’ve been wrong sooooo many times when reporting baseball numbers….

I went to Clemson website this morning to see if we won. Open the page nothing. Had to go to bball and schedule to see. I thought “well late game so…” then remembered a couple late football games and we got good coverage. It is clear Tim B is not in charge of sports info @ Clemson. Number of staff bios that are incomplete - an example.

20 years ago we couldnt fill the football stadium
Jan 5, 2025, 9:31 AM

And people were trying to come to grips with how we were not a football school and never would be. If they win they will get the support. They made a run last year. The trend has been so far that now they will miss the tournament completely this year get beat in the first round of the NIL this year, miss any postseason tournament all together next year, best in the NIL first round again, make the tournament again finally as the last 4 in and play in game. If they can finally break their trends and make another sweet 16 this year they might be on the way.

Basketball is the 2nd sport at Clemson still. Maybe not written up like you would like on here, but it is the 2nd sport at Clemson and in college sports.

In college sports? Check the ratings for march madness vs CWS…

Ratings of March Madness are way above the college world series. Most of the nation doesn't even know the college world series is even on.

It’s because of how the mobile site works. The basketball story is a featured article, with a pic for added attention. If you go to full site view, it’s the second main article behind the 16-returning starters article.

Will change the narrative. Never won ACC tourney (even in these past several down years.) Never been to final 4.
Win and change happens. When we consistently finish middle of the pack in the ACC - why would things change?

players make millions…and every year we have to restructure compensation packages or we lose them to the highest bidder…
Are we STILL talking about what fans…who pay for tickets, spend their time and energy cheering, and put funding into scholarship funds and NIL collectives…”owe” to each program?
Why do we “owe” men’s basketball more support but not women’s soccer?

You'd probably see more variety of sports reporting if Tigernet didn't discontinue posting links to articles at state news websites like it used to. Perhaps newspapers going subscriber-based killed that.
