Only one media member bothered to show up for tonight’s postgame press conference.


Jan 20, 2021, 11:01 PM

That’s right, ONE.

And it was Phil Kornblut. The guy some here call Korncoot.

It’s sad that no other Clemson media members could take 10 minutes out of their busy schedules to “attend.” They didn’t even have to go to Atlanta. They could’ve logged on from their house.

I get it, we didn’t play well tonight, but we’re having a good season. It is a shame that more media members didn’t seem to care.

I blame our unwillingness to guard anyone. the media interest level was what this showing deserved.

Given tonight's performance, less press attention is probably preferable. Just keep it on the DL.

My philosophy on these sports media members


Jan 20, 2021, 11:58 PM

has been this for a long time:
Why do we ever need more than one???

Seriously...how many different people do we need to report the same exact thing to us?

Furthermore...when we have access to the interview itself..why do we need any reporters at all? We don’t need anyone to tell us what was said.

This always blows my mind.

We are going to very likely lose at FSU on Saturday, but then after that we play BC. That will be the game we will have to turn it all around.

Jan 21, 2021, 8:14 AM [ in reply to Re: Only one media member bothered to show up for tonight’s postgame press conference. ]

Road games in conference are always a challenge. At least we have 8 home games remaining, and either 4 or 6 away games depending on the status of the postponed ones (I haven't heard that they have been rescheduled yet anyway). If we can finish 6-2 at home, and 2-4 on the road, we will still have had a solid season by most standards anyway. Win a game or two in the ACC tournament and then we will at least be watching the selection show hoping to hear our name called.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You can’t have it both ways


Jan 21, 2021, 6:35 AM

Suppose they had shown up. Suppose they asked CBB some very tough questions as to why his team that was ranked 12th nationally has been blown out in two straight games. Then, you’d be the first one claiming the media was being too harsh on him. Be thankful the media wasn’t there to put further spotlight on a dismal performance.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I’m not asking to have it both ways.


Jan 21, 2021, 11:15 PM

I just want the media to show up for a sport as important as men’s basketball, especially when we are ranked and playing a conference game, and it’s all done virtually.

Asking Coach Brownell why he thinks we have struggled so much these last two games is very reasonable. I wouldn’t have a problem with that whatsoever.

maybe no need to ask questions. Only Korncoot had to ask questions to clarify what was said. Otherwise the opening statement cleared up all questions.

It’s never got anything to do with the coach or team. It’s always the fans, media, football, etc.

GWPTiger® We left the hospital about 6:30 yesterday evening with the new baby, had to pick up Eli from Nikki's mom, and then finally left Greenville around 8. By the time I got home and got baby and mom settled and Eli bathed it was way after 10, so I was out. Not sure about the other folks or what their deal is.

For us, however, baby and mother are doing fine. Eli is.....adjusting.

I am happy to hear that Nikki is doing well too.

Judge Karen however would like to have a word with your manager because she does not think it's ok for sports writers to have a life outside of their job and should be attending every press conference of every team. So Karen hopes you will correct this going forward.

You’re better than this, Princess.

If you don’t find it sad that only one media member bothered to show up for a virtual postgame press conference, involving a ranked Clemson men’s basketball team playing an ACC opponent, then I don’t know what to say.

Obviously David Hood has a valid excuse. What about the others?

Our program deserves better. Hopefully it was a weird anomaly and won’t be a regular occurrence.

Jan 22, 2021, 3:33 PM

and I don't understand why it matters.

It's a midweek game that took place on the same day as a new President was inaugurated, in the middle of a global pandemic and a press conference that occurred fairly late. I can't think of much that would matter less than how many people attended that.

David, I am speaking from experience when I say, get ready to have lots of father/son time with Eli because he is going to need that love and attention while he learns to share time with the new baby and his mom.

Also bulk order your favorite caffeinated beverage because baby #2 is a lot more tiresome for Dad!
