SHAMEFUL For Clemson
Mar 19, 2019, 7:24 PM
|

N.C. State sells out their NIT game and we have no one. And you idiots want to blame BB for the plight of our program ! We don't deserve a basketball program. PITIFUL !

Let Kevin Keatts make the tourney 2 out of 9 years and see if they sell out in Raleigh for the NIT game his ninth year?
Pack fans still have hope things are looking up. Clemson fans are just exhausted with this situation.

Yes Keatts in his 2nd year. Big difference...

It’s crappy and old, but it holds a lot of people.
Remember though that Pack fans are basketball fans at heart. They will jam the place for an NIT game, but won’t travel at all for football.

It was originally basically square, but long ago they enlarged it by simply blowing out both ends into a rectangle. You’ll get a crick in your neck fro trying to watch from seats on the side at the end

I was always courtside for games
Mar 19, 2019, 10:15 PM
|

but have walked up to the cheap seats there. Like being in another state as far as distance from the court. I miss those old arenas. Cole Field House was awesome. Carolina Coliseum was a great basketball arena, Coots were really stupid to abandon that place. They had character. Playing in the dark at the old Alexander in Atlanta.

Its spring break. How many fans do you guys honestly think are going to show up for a NIT game?? Guess its shameful for kids to want to visit family or have fun partying on spring break instead of staying on campus for a 2 hour basketball game... Pfft

Anyone heard the fun is in the winning. Put a good product on the court and the fans will show up.

Consistency is the key
Mar 20, 2019, 9:24 AM
|
|
Dabo has always preached he wants to build a good program, not just a good team. We've consistently won 10+ games for close to a decade now and that is why people always show up to football games.
The same can not be said for BB. One overachieving season followed by an underachieving season is as inconsistent as it gets. Fans won't show consistent support until the basketball team shows consistent success.

Yeah, good reason NOT to show up if you can. The ones bitching the most are the ones that didn't attend. If you can't pull for the Tigers, go #### yourself.

I do feel bad for the players who committed to Clemson and have given a great effort this season-our guys have really tried hard and at times have played well just not enough to meet expectations. Thanks to those guys for their commitment. Hopefully, there will be better days ahead.

with a population of less than 20,000 versus a larger university not on spring break and in a metropolitan area with a population of over 1.2 million.

If you can get from Greenville to Clemson in 30 minutes you're either starting out 20 traffic lights closer than my house, or going 110 once you get to 123.

This is an apples to oranges comparison for all the reasons others have said but also, because NC State is pretty much universally considered the biggest snub of any team left out of the tournament field, so their fans are rallying around them.
Meanwhile, we choked our way out of the field with our incredible ability to not score for 10 minute chunks and lose close games, and our fanbase knows it.

438,000 compared to 16,000. Maybe I don't need to point this out. Even with a win, you people find something to complain about. Lordy.

Poor attendance is usually a reason a coach gets canned, what’s so difficult about this? Why is he protected like some member of clergy or something? The dude makes hundreds of thousands a year and we act like he is some sort of sick person who deserves our compassion. Reminds me so much of Bowden situation, yet people act like that comparison is retarded. I gotta say they are retarded for not seeing it.

The OP has obviously never had to deal with fans from NC schools. They talk BBall in the middle of FOOTBALL season. CLEMSON fans talk FOOTBALL in the middle of BBall season. We are different. Move to NC, meet some of their fans, puke a lot, and then move back.
