Clemson basketball summed up, take your pick

So choose your poison. - mid tier aCC team every year with a chance at a 9 or 10 seed in the tourney coupled with stability at the coaching position and clean run program.
or
- a borderline elite team with a high potential coach that achieves much but usually leaves after 3-4 years
or
- an abysmal coach that has no clue and puts us down in the gutter every year for 5-6 years a clip?
That seems to always be M.O. of our Clemson basketball program. We've had the Cliff Ellis's, the Rick Barnes's and the Larry Shyatt's... Right now i'd say we're the mid pack team that has a chance for the tourney every year but the upside will always be about a 6/7 out of 10. But its real easy to go back to the Ray Henderson/Tomas Nagys days where we're around 1/3 out of 10... I love the Rick Barnes style too, its alot of fun but only lasts for a temporary amount of time and its usually short lived (but really fun!) and it steadies around the 8-10 out of 10.
OR Maybe we just play the carousel game and hope to hit the lottery every so often? Either way, realize Basketball at Clemson does not = Football at Clemson. There won't be a ton of heavy hitters looking to put down roots at Clemson in basketball. It is what it is.

Clemson basketball fan from when I became a student until now:
I liked the Barnes era more than the Shyatt era.
I liked the OP era more than the Shyatt era.
I liked the Barnes and OP eras more than the Brownell era.
I like the Brownell era more than the Shyatt era.
