> Clemson basketball hasn’t been great the past two years, but they also haven’t been horrible. They finished 8-8 in the ACC last year and are 5-7 so far this season. I think mediocre is a more fair assessment. Expectations heading into this season were very low, too. They are currently in 8th place in the ACC, 1 spot ahead of where they were picked in the preseason polls.
I agree that those calling for Brownell’s head at this juncture are premature. Part of the problem this year has been the inability to close out games. I think they improve greatly in that area next year when they are a little more seasoned.
