check how popular Will Wade is...


Feb 9, 2017, 12:09 PM

At VCU. There fan site says it all. Everything from his recent coaching decisions, to recent recruiting victories, to his great quotes. So much like Dabo. Need to wrap this guy up as an alum and let Brad go...

Guessing you don't follow college basketball but VCU is considered a better job then Clemson. Note basketball is different than football in terms of the pecking order. VCU pays more than Clemson, has better facilities, has better history, Basketball is the top dog on campus, is easier to recruit given the talent in Richmond and the DC area and can accept JUCOs players. Most importantly it is easier for a young coach to do well there and hit the big payday.

"VCU pays more than Clemson" False. Will Wade makes

$1.4 million in base plus supplemental income. Brad Brownell makes $1.7 million.

"...easier to recruit given the talent in Richmond and the DC area." VCU currently has only 4 players from Virginia out of 13 players, including one from South Carolina and none from the DC area. Of those 4 only 1 is in the top 4 in scoring.

His buyout is $1 million.

He is a Clemson graduate.

BB makes half a million more per year and that is going up each year unless we get rid of him.

Please stop trying to be cool by bashing Clemson basketball.

VCU is not considered a better job than Clemson. The only advantages they have is that they are a basketball-first school and have lower academic standards. They have certainly been a good program, especially lately, but the fact that Clemson has new facilities (which are now better than VCU's), plays in the ACC, and pays as much or more than VCU does in terms of salary makes Clemson a better job.

The only reason Clemson has historically been a "bad" job is because we had little to no commitment to it - and coaches and recruits knew it. They knew we were too wrapped up in being a football school and wouldn't put the money toward basketball facilities or salaries. I believe that is different under Radakovich, who understands that Clemson is a good job provided we have the facilities and salary in place.

I graduated from Clemson and my brother coaches at VCU.

I'm not bashing Clemson but VCU is a better basketball job.

VCU has more history and better facilities?


Feb 9, 2017, 7:37 PM [ in reply to Re: check how popular Will Wade is... ]

I guess I'll have to take your word for it because I have no idea. I haven't been following college basketball for more than 10 years but...

We just won our second natty in football and I believe we have 2 nattys in soccer so... what's the problem?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No football at VCU**********

Feb 9, 2017, 3:15 PM [ in reply to Good article on Will Wade and his history and influences. ]

face? That is more of a Venables look - which is what we so desperately need! Passion!! And not intimidated by ACC refs.
