College basketball open jobs


Mar 12, 2017, 3:46 PM

From best to worst:

Illinois
NC State
Missouri
LSU
UMASS
USF
Drake
George Washington

Also a bunch of small jobs are open.

Will any of these jobs take potential clemson candidates? (For next year)

in DRad deciding not to fire Brownell this year?

jobs that open up that would be better than us based on our history. That's reality.

It's just another excuse for program paralysis.


Mar 12, 2017, 3:57 PM

From a management perspective, like sunk costs, it has no bearing on the decision making process.

There will never be a perfect time to let a coach go.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Exactly. So just pull the trigger now.***

DRad is going to need a shove from the President and Board.


Mar 12, 2017, 4:02 PM

His poor decision on the contract extension prevents him from pulling the trigger on his own.

New facilities and paying a higher salary could change that.

It is no coincidence that the jobs valued as better than the Clemson job support basketball better.

Probably! The question is how much Clemson would be willing to pay the next coach and hopefully increased commitment by the administration. Does Drad really think that Brownell will turn the corner in the next two years? If he doesn't buyout or not a change needs to be made. Be honest. If Brownell does not show real growth next season, imagine the wrath of the fans next season.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

They shouldn't.


Mar 12, 2017, 4:08 PM [ in reply to More importantly, do those open jobs play a role ]

There will always be competition for good coaches, and when it's time for a change, we have to be prepared to move. Besides, those jobs aren't necessarily better jobs for the right coach, just like those aren't necessarily better places to spend a few years playing basketball while getting an education for the right recruits. That's the mindset we have to break out of.

Mar 12, 2017, 4:11 PM

Missouri and LSU are close but I could see the right coach making clemson more attractive than those two jobs

State, LSU and Missouri all have far better

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Don't you believe that with the right coach and the

commitment from the university, Clemson could start to overcome that and become more successful than we have traditionally been?

What if we don't make the NIT?


Mar 12, 2017, 4:14 PM

I don't think anybody in the Clemson Administration expected us to miss the NCAA Tournament AND the NIT when Coach Brownell and DRad and everyone was pointing to this year as the year Coach Brownell and his team would be at their best.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think that changes the conversation.***

Mar 12, 2017, 4:20 PM [ in reply to What if we don't make the NIT? ]

That's the point. This was Brownells best team and they underachieved badly. Now we are being told again that this will be Brownells best group of recruits and they will be the difference. You Brownell supporters can't keep hiding behind these excuses. If he fails next year , this resistance to change will destroy Clemson basketball.

Mar 12, 2017, 4:19 PM

can have most of those jobs if they want them. I'd say Miller or Keats to State. Can see Hurley to Illinois, maybe the guy from SIU.

Point is there are many mid major guys who are ready for their chance. Throw in a Wade, Kelsey, several others. Could see a guy like Cooley from Providence, even McDermott at Creighton moving in to one of the more prominent ones.

There are always good candidates available

Mar 16, 2017, 2:03 PM

I don't consider that a prime job in anyway.

Simply too much competition in North Carolina for recruits,

and the Duke and UNC names obliterate State in the marketplace.

coaching graveyard in my opinion...

And UMass behind LSU and Mizzu?

On a serious note, where would you put Clemosn on this list?
