ESPN just called Clemson Basketball one of the "bottom feeders of the ACC"

They did say "with all due respect" before....
Edit: They was Scott Van Pelt.
I don't want to hear that said about our Women's underwater racquetball team.... let alone one of our big 3 sports.

Basketball in the NBA. So if we were in any other conference, we would be number one in that conference, since we play NBA caliber teams all the time.

big time in Basketball. Fired their football coach who went 9-4, don't hire his coach in waiting (who is now doing a terrific job at Vandy), and hire Randy Edsall who has had more players leave their football program than he has wins in his first two seasons.

Painful to hear but the team has yet to disprove it. We've fallen a long way from the few bright years where we consistently placed in the top third of the conference.

I agree it is in a down year, but I also admit we suck. No matter how we can spin it, I'd rather admit that we just suck than make excuses. Also it could be worse. We could be DePaul...

I agree, and with BB's meh recruiting and with the new schools coming in to the ACC we may sink below the bottom.
Watching Dook, UNC we only have one player on our team who could make their 2nd teams---Milton, typo sorry, KJ.
