Wow, Brownell must have really been trying.

Clemson asst Steve Smith knew the exact time it took to get from Clemson's arena to Zion's house—1 hour, 4 minutes—and is caught joking, telling a story about how had to pretend to Brad Brownell about not knowing the route/distance the first time they both went to see Zion there.

This would infer that even brownell didnt know what smith was up to.

So he was recruiting the best player in the country

Something tells me he wont have a job by the weekend. He also tried to implicate the football team. Dabo's going to be pissed.

Brad Brownell: more losses than any other coach in school history.


If you fire him, I hope he doesn’t know anything or he will let it fly.***

Been a little worried with Merl Code’s involvement


Apr 25, 2019, 2:04 PM

Hopefully nothing to it. At least if we bid, it was DUKE that outbid us.

This is pretty foolhardy on everyone’s part, because hadn’t the story already started breaking by the time Zion signed?

Agreed, Merl Sr used to be a judge in Greenville and he's

Your argument ...


Apr 25, 2019, 2:24 PM [ in reply to Been a little worried with Merl Code’s involvement ]

"At least if we bid, it was DUKE that outbid us," if true, does not exonerate us. Two "wrongs" do not make a "right." Both parties would be guilty.

we havent done a very good job at it. And Code hasnt sent us anyone of note.

Relax...it was a joke


Apr 25, 2019, 2:37 PM [ in reply to Your argument ... ]

I meant that if this happened, at least we didn’t sign him, and that I was glad that Duke did

Not sure how that turned into two wrongs making a right. I will wait and see what the outcome is, as I wasn’t in the room. Which is why I said “”IF this is true.” I am a follow the rules type of guy, so you are way off base.

Re: Your argument ... Two wrongs


Apr 26, 2019, 12:58 AM [ in reply to Your argument ... ]

Right. 2 wrongs don't make a right. But where's the FIRST wrong? Does anyone really believe DUKE will ever be caught/punished/prosecuted for any wrong? They'll hammer Clemson - but never the Dukes of "King K."

UNC & Duke have a lifetime pass for any & all felonies, misdemeanors or violations of any kind.

Well that's not good.


Apr 25, 2019, 2:18 PM

Looks like Steve Smith might be out of a job in the very near future.

The Clemson Board of Trustees is meeting tomorrow to discuss coaching contracts, including Brownell's as well as basketball assistants. Sounds like a good time to discuss a healthy budget for Smith's replacement.

I’ve got news for ya. Anyone who gives out imaginary thumbs down and think it somehow affects someone’s life doesn’t have a set of balls to begin with. It takes a special kind of loser to give out pretend thumbs down when they get their panties wadded. I wouldn’t worry about it bro.

Re: Clemson asst coach caught on wire tap discussing Zion


Apr 25, 2019, 2:27 PM

Talking and doing are two different things. Since Zion went to Duke, I doubt we ever gave him or any member of his family any money. To me, this is a non story.

The fact that our sub par basketball program


Apr 25, 2019, 2:28 PM

and its constituents are saying things to people that could possibly jeopardize the legitimacy of our football and its recruiting makes me sick. In regards to basketball coaches, Fire'em all fire 'em quick. I'm officially over this coaching staff lets go after Greg Buckner.

Re: Clemson asst coach caught on wire tap discussing Zion

Sounds to me like he was trying use Clemson football as a “see we’re one of the major players too” type argument to sway Zion. Keep the football program’s name out of your mouth. Recruit on your own merits. If that’s not good enough, then step aside.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Clemson asst coach caught on wire tap discussing Zion

So the FBI wiretaps CLEMSON who has a non-relevant BBall program, but ignores doing the same for Duke, who is a perennial power in BBall? A huge rat in the woodpile, or maybe just someone who looks like a rat.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No the runner was wire tapped


Apr 25, 2019, 3:09 PM

They’re just picking up the coaches he was talking to. Apparently Duke didn’t go through the same guy.

Re: Clemson asst coach caught on wire tap discussing Zion

Well, it's obvious that we can no longer allow assistant basketball coaches to sit in with our football cheating strategy meetings.

####, he can't even cheat well, either.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not a big BB fan, but sounds like he had no idea


Apr 25, 2019, 3:05 PM

what was going on and in fact, this assistant intentionally lied to BB to keep him in the dark.

I asked this above


Apr 25, 2019, 4:33 PM [ in reply to Not a big BB fan, but sounds like he had no idea ]

does this mean Smith was recruiting Zion, the best player in the country, behind Brad's back?
