Where did you have Clemson BB today (record wise)
Feb 22, 2014, 11:14 PM
|
|
I follow about 20 teams that I make a habit to watch every game they play on TV if possible. I start the season with a spreadsheet for each team and predict each game and where I think they will finish the season.
I like Clemson BB and think Brownell is a great coach.
Today Clemson is 16-9
In October I predicted the Tigers to be 15-10 today.
I had a Duke loss at home.
I switched Florida St with a win at home and a loss away. I had Clemson winning at Auburn.
And I had a loss at Ga Tech.
So I have missed 5 games but the result is ONLY a PLUS 1.
Everyone says this Clemson team has surprised. What did you think Clemson's record would be today and which games did you have reversed.

Terriers are Dogs not coots....try to keep up. And why the name calling and smark a$$ remarks. I did not say a negative word and in fact complimented Clemson.
I had So Carolina at 14-12
Wins over Manhatten, USC Upstate,Georgia at home and Auburn.
Grow up and if you can contribute to the discussion then STHU.

Since I am a Terrier, I had The T Dogs at 13-14.
I never have any faith in Wofford Basketball since we got lucky with a few recruits and made the Dance a few years back.
The So Con is soooooooo bad now that predicting games is a crap shoot. Wofford is not very good but just won 8 in a row. Everyone except UCHATT and Davidson is just worse than us.
So I am MINUS 3 on Wofford.

Clemson and Wofford are about equal as far as acceptance rates, required SATs, reputation.
Wofford accepted 51% last year, Clemson accepted 58%.....
Wofford averaged SAT 1310. Clemson 1295......
Top 25% of class Wofford 84%............. Clemson 84%
Both are obviously fine schools that have great reputations and recognized nationally for what they do well..Both provide excellent educations for students that choose the school.
It really comes down to what you want in a college. I went to a big high school so I really wanted a small school for college with small classes. If you want a bigger school feel then Clemson is perfect.
I liked classes of 10 students, a liberal arts education, no graduate students teaching classes, and knowing every professor. I missed not having all the things that Clemson offered such as different classes, large school environment, a winning team when I was there and a fantastic opportunity to study with great people.
I never said anything negative about Clemson, not sure why you feel you have to belittle others to make yourself look better ????

I had us at either 10-8 or 9-9 in the ACC... so we're on

pace to do better than that.
I don't think BB is surprised, and I'm not that surprised... We have guys that have bought into a system. We're a couple if breaks from being 10-4 in ACC play right now.

I think your 10-8 is going to either be right or short a game.

Father ----- Clemson Class of 60 something.
Son accepted for Class of 2018. But he is still deciding where he wants to go. Waiting to see all the financial aid packages and where he feels at home.
Accepted to Boston College, Cornell (Provisional), College of Charleston, Clemson, Florida State and Swathmore (Philly Area)
Denied to UNC Chapel Hill and GaTech.....weird.

"Consortium" along with Bryn Mawr and Haverford....even with a "Duke-like" endowment, it still costs about $80K for them what can make it through to cap and gown day in 4 years....you can imagine what other costs would be outside of mere tuition.

Son is choosing between those schools.
I choose Vandy over Clemson, Wofford, Furman and Samford. Then Wally World came through with just about a full ride so I went to Wofford.
My son is choosing between Clemson, CoC, Swarthmore, Cornell, BC and FSU.
I apologize Jim but I did not follow the rest of your post. I am not sure what Bryn Mawr and Haverford are or what they have to do with Duke or Wofford or Swarthmore.

Honestly he was accepted provisionally to Cornell (they want another SAT /ACT score) based on the fact that his mother's Grandfather was a professor there for 40 plus years. There is an endowed chair at Cornell named in honor of my son's great grandfather.
I think he was accepted because of the legacy. I am not 100% sure he is dedicated to what it would take to succeed at Cornell. He also realizes that Cornell would be difficult and wants to explore everything before he makes his final decision. If he puts his mind to it then he can succeed. There is also the question of upstate New York vs. staying closer to home.
He really fell in love with College of Charleston and the town. It is hard not to love Charleston.

you claim it was a typo to have 16 instead of 17. Just admit you were intellectually challenged at the moment. Or to put it more simply - just plain wrong!

I had not seen that.
Pretty cool to see Wofford and Clemson recognized as among the best in the state and country.
Can't wait to show that to my Purple Friends.

I didn't pin point a record, least NOT at
this stage; Just hoped we would make post

improvement. Something...
