Coach EVER when it comes to injuries. Never seen anything like it in my life...And... it seems like it is the best or potentially the best players on the team....
Get well soon wishes to P.J.

have a lack of depth in talent to overcome injuries? Injuries happen to every single program in every sport.

don't know ANY coach that has to deal with losing either the best player or multiple key players every single year. Name that last year we didn't have a...or several key players out for extended periods of time....

own "luck".
Dabo - good energy/vibe until 2020 when he lost the narrative a bit with BLM and COVID. He has also struggled a bit with NIL, the portal, etc. but the video from the ladies clinic and the recent recruiting successes show he is getting his groove back.
Noonan - what can you say? National champions. Major good energy around that program.
Softball - same.
Women's basketball - I had high hopes for Butler. But she has lost some steam. May be men's BB vibes rubbing off on her.
But, to your point. Brownell is a good guy, but snake bit. And his energy attracts some of the rattlers and copperheads.

I don’t appreciate or dwell on negativity, though. So I apologize for any resulting offense.

Injury bug has been bad but he has a 12 year body of work....

Several occasions had good players on teams with no key injuries and the team didn't get the job done.
KJ McDaniels Junior season, close but no cigar.
Jaron Blossomgame in his last two seasons. Close but no cigar
Oh, and if all that bad luck for a program how come Rick Barnes and Oliver Purnell over came injuries to have good seasons?
Barnes had guys like Iturbe and McIntyre hurt for key times and still made the NCAAT.
Both James Mays and Cliff Hammonds had injuries in 2008 and they still made the NCAAT

The same Brad that hasn't made B2B NCAAT appearances?

Both Barnes and Purnell went to 3 straight. Heck even Cliff Ellis went B2B and 3 out of 4.
Barnes did it in 4 seasons, OP in 7, and here we are headed into year 13 with Brad.
Clemson winning %'s and NCAAT appearances below:
Brad Brownell(2011-present) - 56.8% (3 NCAAT)
Oliver Purnell(2004-2010) - 61.1% (3 NCAAT in a row)
Larry Shyatt(1999-2003) - 45.5% (0 NCAAT)
Rick Barnes(1995-1998) - 60.7% (3 NCAAT in a row)
Cliff Ellis(1984-1994) - 58.1% (3 NCAAT in 4 years)
