I think, if anything, his job is the most secure in the ACC

He just went 18-2 in conference. They do not care about basketball. They cut his funding. He has gone through losing seasons and no one cared. He's there until he doesn't want to be there. Which could happen for sure

When I tell you that Clemson does not care about basketball...
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 12:24 PM ET
Clemson went 18-2 in conference last year.
Pride_and_Joy • 07/28/25 07:47 AM ET
And they had 3x the resources as VT did last year...
GCHokie34 • 07/28/25 01:18 PM ET
Because VT doesn’t care 3x as much as Clemson? 🤷‍♂️**
hokieZ71 • 07/28/25 07:40 PM ET
If Clemson has 3x the resources invested in basketball
Pride_and_Joy • 07/28/25 06:30 PM ET
As always your ignorance is exhausting...
GCHokie34 • 07/28/25 08:40 PM ET
Seems I’ve upset you.
Pride_and_Joy • 07/29/25 10:12 AM ET
Says the guy upset over a damn LAX post

Basketball is 2x/wk. Football is 1x/wk.

We had the chance to be a basketball school in the 60's but we had Mosley.**

Until your product becomes stale because you have not put $$$$

The basketball team outperformed the football team...
GCHokie34 • 07/25/25 03:57 PM ET
I see your point but, at the end its revenue

There are two sports at Clemson that turn a profit...
GCHokie34 • 07/25/25 04:41 PM ET
Clemson is positioning their 🏈 program to gain admission into the BIG 2
tallahasseehokie • 07/29/25 05:26 PM ET
im not making judgement on this. its not good or bad
1947Sunbowl • 07/26/25 11:18 AM ET
imo a direct result of the ACC lawsuit settlement
hokieninsurance • 07/25/25 01:43 PM ET
The ACC settlement didn't make them want the best players any more
Pylons • 07/26/25 06:52 PM ET
900k ain't gonna do it**
GCHokie34 • 07/25/25 03:54 PM ET
I'd be curious how that compares to the average SEC school
hokiehill1117 • 07/25/25 12:35 PM ET
Almost all P4 schools do a 75/15/5/5 split...like the article states
GCHokie34 • 07/25/25 01:27 PM ET
The 24-25 VT NIL strategy!
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/24/25 02:35 PM ET
The VT football team did not create a bigger NIL pool for anyone
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:36 PM ET
Exactly, but I can see how it might work for Clemson
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/24/25 02:40 PM ET
In theory maybe...
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:42 PM ET
I would not be happy if I were Brownell.
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/24/25 03:09 PM ET
I think, if anything, his job is the most secure in the ACC ◄
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 03:16 PM ET
Any insight as to why he is still there? I would think that he would....
Jackie VT • 07/24/25 05:04 PM ET
Literally all the reasons above...
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 07:32 PM ET
We always hear how ultracompetitive the coaches are. This seems more like

I would like to see what Duke does with their %'s.....
BleedinOandM • 07/24/25 02:01 PM ET
you never know, Duke is private... **
1947Sunbowl • 07/25/25 04:37 PM ET
Anything below 50% is going to be advantage non-football
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:22 PM ET
They did go out and grab the highest priced QB in the portal in December.
hokieZ71 • 07/24/25 06:44 PM ET
That makes me mad....they don't care but still had a good team last year..
BleedinOandM • 07/24/25 02:29 PM ET
I mean...blame football?**
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:33 PM ET
One brave woman did try to warn us.
KCHokie2 • 07/24/25 09:44 PM ET
Maybe Brownell can start going to that Church Dabo used to go before NIL...**
HokieBrazil • 07/24/25 01:34 PM ET
He might...if they cared about bball
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:21 PM ET
Can’t blame them for not caring about bball.
Pride_and_Joy • 07/27/25 08:25 AM ET
But, they have NIL money on top of that perceived 11%**
Hokie`79 • 07/24/25 01:15 PM ET
So does everyone else
GCHokie34 • 07/24/25 02:20 PM ET
Correct, but so do other schools to varying degrees.....
