If he had any balls he would resign because he’s not producing. I’ll be honest impressed with the athletes he’s amassed but he can’t win with them. May make an outstanding assistant.

Is Brad gave all he has and continues to. Unfortunately that’s the problem. It’s all he has. Spurrier mailed it in well in advance costing at least 1-2 years of recruiting. Unfortunately for usuck the next guy was worse than a half ### spurrier

Maybe the real problem is as B says he does not have equal talent so he thinks sending lots of players to burn the legs from the opponent is all he has. But maybe what he is doing is killing the rhythm of his few scorers, i.e playing time. Took a look at Va. While Clemson has 11 players averaging 10 min per game Va has 9. Clemson has 3 players at about 27 min/g but Va has 2 above 30m/g and 2 more above 27 m/g and the fifth at 24 m/g. and Va has a very strong D. Maybe we should play with our best players and give them a chance to develop with only a few subs with 10- 15 min. Our scramble D has been figured out and I bet our best 5 or 6 can handle 30+ m/g.

Only at Clemson is it okay to insinuate that the head men’s basketball coach doesn’t have balls.***

And probably a few SEC schools too.

I personally like Brad. I think he is a good X and O man, but as a recruiter something is missing, and you hit the hammer on the nail;
He has been able to produce some good "athletes", but how many of them year in, and year out are NBA caliber players.
Now before I answer that, I can tell you I don't give a rats tail for the NBA ,but that's not the point.
The point is while he has some good athletes, how many of them are actually" basketball players"?
How many of them can actually make the move to the next level.
Look, I realize we are not Duke, or North Carolina ,or Virginia, but there is no reason we can't compete game in, and game out against the rest of the league.
In my opinion, a 9-1 start has basically gone down the drain with a 1-4 record in our last 5 games.
Fire Brad. That's not my decision, but how many more chances should he be given?
I suspect if this was Dabo, after 11 seasons, he probably wouldn't see season 12.

Dabo would not have made it 4 years with Brads resume. Mind you Clemson football is a different animal so the basketball coach should be given a little more leniency.
But come on. When is enough enough.

I just watched his post game press conference and heard a lot of lame excuses. We don't have time. IF you make 2.5 million a year you better make time. Says we need to coach better. Then take a pay cut as you admitted you are not earning that kind of money. I have been saying now for five years. He can't get us to the next level. Send him and DRad packing.

I think he doesn't motivate.

I think you’re right. He has some good players but can’t win

The close games. Why we are getting blown out by what is it 4/5 now? You lost me unless as others have said he lost his team.

Putting the ball in the basket. This is the Prime Directive in Basketball. Do that reliably, and everything else falls into place.
