That’s not being snakebitten or cursed. That’s a reflection of coaching and culture.
But keep making excuses for him....

Did you happen to look and see how many of those came in the last minute? I know of 4 just this year alone.

Would be interesting to know how many wins by 3 pts or less in that time. 5 maybe? Numbers don’t lie.

We’ve won 6 games in the last 5 years by 3 or less points and as stated above, we’ve lost 23.
So, rounding it off, out of the last 30 games we are 7-23 n games decided by one possession. So 23.5% chance we win a close game over the last 5 years. Glad we’re a heck of a lot better at 50/50 balls in football...

There are some fans like judge and another guy on another site that say Brad should be commended for keeping games close. Smh...

UNC has more McDonald's All-Americans on their current

team than we've had in our entire basketball history.
UNC has way more talent than we do. Don't you think it is a testament to our coaches and players that we had a shot at the end to beat them? Because on paper, they should win by 8-10 at least.
Obviously we need to recruit better players so that we don't have such a significant talent deficit, because the ultimate goal is to win the game. No one is debating that.
But if you can't be disappointed we lost, while still looking at the positives, then that's too bad.

Thanks for this. Maybe people will read this like I just did and really let it sink in. 6-23 in games decided by 3 points or less. And I bet most of the 6 were last year cause of devoe

All those opposed to CBB must not have lived long enough to realize Clemson basketball has a much longer record of futility along these lines, Losses in Chapel Hill for one.
When Roy Williams acknowledges we are ill fated I would agree. I’ll give Brownell one more year to see what transpires, but if he were wise he would quietly find another job and let DRad start looking now.
Go Tigers!

Everything you just said is the problem. You’re being faked into thinking we’re not that far away because of our close losses so keep brownell. No no hell no. We had this season after losing Gabe devoe. And grantham somewhat. What the heck do u thinks going to happen when we lose 4 senior starters? Our PG, best scorer we’ve had in years, the best big man since sharrod ford and Trevor booker, lock down Skara. Really? We may win 10 games next year

You're right and I absolutely can't understand this

philosophy of "give him one more year". It'll be year 10. If he is going to go, just don't see what the propose of keeping him another year is.
