Where's the fan support for Clemson Basketball?

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me.


Haven't you heard?


Jan 6, 2018, 11:47 AM

Clemson students are wayyyyyy too busy with all their tests and papers and homework and projects and internships and exams to come out to watch a silly shooty hoops game.

Plus, it's at noon, and they are all wayyyy too hungover and tired from all the partying they did last night

Also, have you been outside? It's wayyyyy too cold to walk all the way down to Littlejohn

And finally, nobody wants to support a team that isn't very good and doesn't have an exciting style of play

Oh wait.....


AGREED, CMON GUYS!

We don't start classes until Wednesday so most kids aren't back yet. Nice try though.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I'm aware of that....


Jan 6, 2018, 11:52 AM

And it's a perfectly valid reason for low-attendance

That being said, do you really believe that there aren't any students already back to campus by now?

where are the season ticket holders ????????????? Always the students

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: I'm aware of that....


Jan 7, 2018, 10:19 AM

Amen to that. Student seats to rest of seats probably make up max 20% of total and maybe 30% of lower level.

Clemson fans are slow to support basketball but lightening quick to critique it.

Dorms open on Sunday

So maybe not

That's way before the game started COME ON

Clemson blew it when they established the seat equity plan for basketball. It didn't make sense when Littlejohn was never full to begin with. I had season tickets from 1955 forward, supporting the program through some very lean years. Had I renewed my season tickets, my seats would have required me to climb up or down, something I can no longer do and feel safe.

It doesn’t exist, it’s the real reason OP and


Jan 6, 2018, 11:58 AM

Rick Barns left Clemson. It’s also the number thing opposite coaches use against Clemson in recruiting.


Clemson needs to stop selling season tickets and go 100% general admission.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

yeah, that's the ugly truth***

I wasn’t around for the Rick Barnes era but LJ was packed


Jan 6, 2018, 8:57 PM [ in reply to It doesn’t exist, it’s the real reason OP and ]

when we were playing winning basketball with Purnell. I’m talking games were sold out, and not just the UNC game either

Re: I wasn’t around for the Rick Barnes era but LJ was packed


Jan 6, 2018, 9:04 PM

Purrnel never had us rank in the top 5

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

This was 30 minutes before tip off....


Jan 6, 2018, 12:38 PM

Quite a few more folks there now.

badge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yes, and a good part of the crowd was at the Esso


Jan 7, 2018, 4:36 PM

Drink’in before the game, and then run in 5 minutes before game time, since no beer sales at Clemson games, never mind what the rest of the ACC is doing.

The fans are probably still pi$$ed at the FOOTBALL game that happened on Monday night! Just my .02 cents!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Looked like a great crowd to me


Jan 6, 2018, 2:21 PM

Maybe don’t judge attendance 30 min before the game, especially a noon game.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Must have been well before the game, I was there


Jan 6, 2018, 6:54 PM

And it was easily 75% full. Not a lot of students, but that's to be expected during winter break. Great game and a fun one to watch. Go Tigers!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Good deal


Jan 6, 2018, 7:46 PM

Hopefully it will start filling up some! Unfortunately, I'm 4 hours away.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Attendance was 7,594.


Jan 6, 2018, 6:59 PM

But not an hour before the game started.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Where's the fan support for Clemson Basketball?


Jan 6, 2018, 7:02 PM

Look at the goalpost. That was taken 25 min before tip.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

tip-off was 12:05


Jan 6, 2018, 7:08 PM

what kind of crowd did she expect 31 minutes before the game? dumb post IMO

it was one of the best crowds of the season

the lower arena was the most-filled it's been

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

yeah, that was a clown post bro***

This attitude is a joke.

Our team is 14-1, has won 10 in a row, at the top of the ACC, might be ranked in the Top 20 today.

That’s a team you support, regardless of anything that has happened in the past.
