Here's the simple reason that doesn't work and I hope

everyone gets this...

Tommy Bowden was the head football coach. Football has had exponentially more resources at Clemson than basketball has, because Clemson has ALWAYS been considered a football school, regardless of '90s ineptness. There is no way any football coach at Clemson should ever be mediocre. Ever. Tommy Bowden rode his father's name and an OC named Rich Rodriquez into Clemson and got exposed for his lack of leadership skills.

Brownell came into a much different situation. I'm not saying he's a world beater coach, and resources for basketball did improve, and I'm as frustrated as anyone about the up and down performances. But, Brownell didn't come to Clemson with the expectations, or name, that Bowden did. Nor is he an excuse maker, which all by itself makes him and Bowden light years different.

If you want to insult Brownell for the inconsistency, have at it. But, the TB comparison doesn't hold water. Tommy Bowden thought Clemson was lucky to have him. Brownell has quietly and humbly gone about his job, for better or for worse.
