NCAA Tournament for Tigers??

I think if this team can stay consistent they could sneak in as a 11 or 12 seed and get to the second round but that’s it!
Thoughts???

We typically don't make the tournament, and it's still early. It all depends on how the team develops. The thing is, Brad's teams don't develop. Clemson is below average talent-wise in conference and has below average coaching. That's not a recipe for making many tournaments.
Based on Brad's track record I'd say the odds are against making the it, but I guess anything is possible.

If history is a guide, we'll lose a bunch of close ACC games

That will keep us out of the tourney. I hope that's not the case, but seems to be the baseline for Brownell.

Tigers play Wake Forest Friday night at 7! Should be a good test for us bc Wake Forest beat Wisconsin Tuesday night! They are 7-1 and should be a good test for the Tigers and I think we get the Win!!!

The ACC is 5th in conference RPI and NET. People tend to claim that RPI and/or NET don’t matter this early, but that really isn’t true. Once conference play starts the relative conference rankings tend to become fixed. Non-conference play is when the conferences build their pecking order. As a 5th place ranked conference the ACC has gotten 5-7 teams in the conference. We overperformed last year with 5. We tied the all-time worst record ever for 7 teams from a conference the year before. To have a chance Clemson will have to finish in the top 7 of the ACC, but probably need to be higher. The ACC is terrible this year so it is doable. But Brownell teams are consistently inconsistent and any significant injury time for any of our top 7 players will pretty much sh*t-can the season.

Our team is so hot and cold shooting except for Hemingway. We are a veteran team but still lost to a crappy Usuck team and let a team come back and tie us with a 7 point lead with 50 sec to go (did win, but not my point). Stay Consistent in shooting and free throws and we should get in the Dance.

We are shooting 39% from t3 for the year. You are dumb, or ignorant.

Why do you feel the need to make every attack personal? It's against the rules. Knock it off. He said we need to "stay" consistent. There is no contradiction in that statement to their current 3-point percentage. So not only is the "dumb or ignorant" comment a violation of rules it is also, kind of, what you said.

Who knows? We will just see how we are looking in the ACC. My gut is that we just squeeze into the tournament. I hope so.

If PJ stays healthy, we’ll have a shot. Go Tigers.

True. Hall needs to be 100 per cent for the Tigers to play their best. He appears to be getting there
The Penn State game I watched this week is a game that the Tigers normally would lose.
It was comforting to see Littlejohn alive and loud at the Penn State game . Especially with the students.
