We win one of the last 2 games we will finish 22-9(14-6) and 4th and a double bye in the ACC tournament. If that does not qualify for an NCAA bid then just forget about EVER GOING AGAIN no matter who the Coach is you BB haters !! No justification at all for firing Coach Brownell.

It doesn’t matter if Tommy Bowden loses to Wake Forest because he beat Florida State. End of discussion.

Tommy was every bit as good on tv as he was at being our head coach. Hence why we don't see him anymore

We have 3 quad-4 losses. The top 32 teams have 3 combined. Only 3 teams in the top 100 NET have 3 or more; Indiana St.(3), James Madison (4), and us
So no, it’s not “that’s basketball”. The Wake, Miami, and UNC losses are understandable and forgivable. That’s basketball

The fact that SC moved out of quad 4 recently may help us but no team with 2 or more quad 4 losses has made the tournament. I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure.
After 13 seasons we are tired of making the tournament 1 out of 5 times. Just make the tournament Brad. That’s what the fans want.

Of we beat uva we would be 5-3 in quad 1 games I believe. That should make up for the quad 4 Ls.

The ACC is way down. It’s down right terrible. That’s one reason for our NET. That and those 4 god awful losses. We should of had one max on the year. Not 4. The comity will have a hard decision on their hands if we win one more and lose our one game in ACCT. I personally don’t think that’ll be enough. I think we need at least two more wins. No matter how we get them.

As Brownell said, "If they (NCAA, ESPN) don't want us IN the Tournament, they'll find a way to keep us out" (paraphrased)
It's all about the TV ratings and money. A top 4 finish "should" qualify for a berth in the Big Dance, but if there aren't enough flashy or "generational" teams available due to down years, they're going to find a way to get them in and keep other teams that have played "up" years out of it. There are millions of us "Boomers" who have grown up watching Duke, NC, Virginia, Gonzaga, Indiana, MSU, U of M, Purdue, UConn, etc. Many of them have money to spend on their favaorite teams in many ways. They travel well and spend that money when they do.
I've got my fingers crossed that Clemson finishes strong and has a good showing in Greensboro. If they do these things they will have earned their way into "The Dance". If they do that, and don't get in, that'll be proof of a very flawed system.
