Raleigh N&O writer's comment on Brad

Comment by sportswriter Joe Goglio in today's Raleigh News & Observer- "Clemson coach Brad Brownell is like another version of former Maryland coach Gary Williams; he doesn't need a ton of talent to beat you."

Except Brad doesn't scream like a banshee and sweat through suit coats. Never liked Gary. He was just an obnoxious guy

Ran Williams off, bankrupted Maryland and now she is off and running in Raleigh.

I always felt just the opposite about Gary Williams ...

... I thought he looked brilliant when he had a ton of talent, but was a mediocre coach who suffered when he had average players.
He was at his best when his squad featured future NBA guys like as Joe Smith, Steve Francis, Juan Dixon, Steve Blake, Lonny Baxter, Terence Morris and Chris Wilcox, and Byron Mouton.
I would love to see how well Brad Brownell would do with players like that to work with.

... at least.
Which separates them from 99% of the players that come to Clemson historically.
