Which brings up the biggest, and perhaps most damaging question for Brownell: I wrote on Rubbing The Rock that the fans needed to give Brownell credit for a strong run in the ACC to that point.Įven at that point, however, the flaws that would doom this team had been shown. It isn’t an indictment to have believed this team was different at a certain point in the season. Now, for the first time in his tenure, Neff is taking hard criticism from fans for making the decision too quickly. Instead, Neff announced Monday that Brownell would return for the 2023-24 season based on his assertion that the Tigers were an NCAA Tournament quality team, and the committee simply whiffed. The insinuation was that if they didn’t, Clemson was likely to make a change with the leadership of the program. Neff’s letter to fans after last season indicated that this year’s team should qualify for the NCAA Tournament. Much of the postseason discussion has centered on Athletic Director Graham Neff’s decision to retain Head Coach Brad Brownell. Now we sit here as fans trying to dissect what went wrong. Unlike years past, Tiger fans were suddenly incensed with a NET metric that they couldn’t have given two flips about for most of the years it had existed because it never impacted the discussion about Clemson Men’s Basketball. It was a season at one point that seemed like it would be a roar with the Tigers dancing in the NCAA Tournament.
Clemson Men’s Basketball just finished their season with a whimper in the first round of the NIT.
