Is the Jack Leggett situation to BB?


Mar 26, 2019, 4:13 PM

I know Jack was considered a hall of fame coach by Clemson but during his last few years at Clemson a lot of people wanted him gone. The day he got let go their were many people were bashing the AD for making that decision. Lets say Dan fires Brownell at his meeting with him this week (which it seems most want to happen) will we see the same backlash from tiger fans questioning his decision as we did when Jack was let go?

All depends on who they get to replace him. If it's Joe Schmo from Southwest Missouri A&T then there will be a hissy fit. If DR lures someone who's had success at a major college, maybe not.

So you think the situations are similar in terms of Clemson baseball having the same potential as Clemson basketball? Lord help us...

Do not think you can compare Jack Leggett to Brad Brownell.......IMO Jack was a much better recruiter and coach even though he was in a different sport.....Jack did not have a problem getting us to Omaha (probably comparable to the Final 4 of basketball) but could not manage to win it all after numerous chances.....now Brad has had a very difficult time even getting us to the Big Dance much less the Final 4......Jack was a HOF coach but probably stayed about 5 years to long at Clemson before hanging up his cleats.....now even if Brad hung around another 20 years I believe his chances of making the Big Dance more than a couple of times are pretty slim at best......Brad will never be a HOF coach and I consider him an average coach and recruiter at best.....and that is the difference between the two..... Go Tigers!!!!!

For clarification, Coach Leggett was not “considered a hall of fame coach by Clemson”. Rather, he IS a hall of fame coach, like him or not. His accomplishments far exceed Coach Brownell’s, and it’s not even close. So, if Brownell is let go (which I doubt will happen), there will likely be little or no backlash.

Yes, it’s pretty insulting to Leggett to compare him and Browell. ***

Lol you’re comparing a former baseball coach to the current basketball coach on the football board. The man

To answer your ? no. Their situations are not comparable at all
